Quite honestly Dave you are beating the wrong horse here. You need
gears more than a different Tcase and not just because of tires but
altitude to at times. Also, the 205 has a 1.96 low range and 208 about
2.7 so you will loose about 30 percent of your low range performance
with swap as well. I am not anti 205's because I actually owned
several in "new" trucks when they were still original equipment. Your
effort woulf be far better rewarded with a gear swap to 4.56 or
possibly even 4.88's. A 208 can live a very long time if you change
fluid in them regulalrly and keep torque loads down on them (like not
35 or so with 3.73 gears)  I would have changed gear ratios long ago.
BTW, the 14 bolt has a carrier break at 4.10/4.56 but you can get
thick gears and use 4.10 carrier at 4.56 and above. The D44 has a
carrier break at 3.73/3.92 but Yukon Gear makes a thick 4.56 for that
carrier too so you can skip carrier change there too.
