Hello, if you dont mind Id like to weigh in on this a bit. So Kyle asked you to send a picture because he is new and didn't know that we don't send those adapters with gaskets anymore, and anytime a package or kit is missing a part our protocol is get a picture for our records to show why we are sending out parts on a completed order. However once he discussed the problem with us, we explained to him that we no longer use gaskets, but instead RTV. Because no two machinists are the same, the factory machinist is going to machine parts differently than our machinist (not to mention dissimilar metals), the RTV fills those differences much better than a paper gasket. We had better luck with RTV and switched to using that here in the shop, so that is also the way we sell it. So I think it was just a misunderstanding with a new employee and maybe a little bit of miscommunication but I hope that explained it better, if you still have any questions or concerns, let me know.
I actually prefer a thin film of rtv on my paper gaskets but thats just me.
Brian if you choose to use a gasket make one or go to Toyota and buy a transmission to tcase gasket and use a thin film of rtv.
