Sep 06, 2014 Re: Cracked Transmission Housing If you want to consider stitching the crack, have a look at this.

The pan does not remove like a regular transmission pan- you have to remove the entire transmission (and engine, I think). It has a drain plug like an oil pan, but as you can see it has a crack. I thought I would ask the pro's (I am not a good welder at ALL and I wouldn't even begin to try this job) because there are several kind of dicey problems: -it is still dripping transmission fluid, a little. That has pretty much stopped though. ![]() -it would have to be welded upside down. I am thinking just a little bead along the outside of the crack would do it. Maybe add an aluminum patch under the threads to beef it up. I am hoping that since this is at the bottom of the sump and is such a short crack, things won't get too hot inside and I can get it welded in place. Recover deleted files outlook 2016. After all, if my alternative is to take the thing out then tear it apart, I would be money ahead to find a used transmission somewhere instead. So, I am willing to risk a little extra heat to get it going, and start shopping for another transmission. Thanks, Joe Thanks, Joe. That is just sump oil and not under pressure. The plug seals with a gasket on the flat surface, that will have to be closed too.Do I need to know what alloy this is? How do I find out? Also, I am worried about transmission fluid burning inside. I am draining out as much as I can. Just how hot is this likely to get? Removing it requires taking off the front wheels, axles, back driveshaft, transfer case, and lifting the engine. Then to get the pan off requires pretty extensive disassembly of the transmission. So whatever the solution is, will have to be as is, in place. Thanks for all the comments and advice!
