no reason it shouldn't fit. all evo 8 and 9 transmissions and transfer cases are interchangeable.

They are interchangeable. You must be doing something wrong. Maybe the splines are not lining up?

It look like the out put tube on the 05 tranny is to big to go into the 03 transfer case.

What exactly are you having trouble with? I just did my clutch last week. Yes they are all interchangeable.

Make sure the stub shaft is removed on the drivers side.

No reason it should not fit. Many have put non-acd transfer cases on their 05-06 trannies without issue.

no it's not. they're all the same size.

why are you changing transmissions? did you break something? if you can't get the parts to fit something is wrong.

how is it not fitting?
did you remove the stubby shaft?
the tranny lines up with the motor correct?

they are definitely interchangeable.
