Yes, low range in 208 is lower than 205. My reasons, I guess mainly the slip yoke. Had a 208 in my 85 with a 10" lift. Then there is the chain, cast aluminum construction. Guess I am old school. 205 is gear driven, cast iron, bullet proof. The 6l has a generously low first gear. I decided to re-use the 205 in my 72.
