Actually it is listed as foam in the TSB and 7/64" in the parts book. The 2881314 gasket is listed in the 68 TSB and in the parts packages section of the 70-71 parts book, but not in the axle section. It appears that the listing in the axle section of p/n 2070933 is in error. It should be 2881314. I am going to go lay down now, I am feeling very confused.
