Re: For the transmission GURU's

Pics from my other thread.. http://www.dsmstyle.com/forums/showthread.php?t=8366

I am afraid to have it welded and pass it off to someone else. I have a friend who is a master tig welder and he looked at it and said it would have to be chemically cleaned and rinsed...then with al the pourous metal it would have to be a wire fed tig with aluminum. Even then it would not be all that great. I would not want to pass on that problem to someone else when I sell it.

I am sure it came be done...I am just not comfortable with welding it.

With all that saad...I have found a couple of trannies here in Colorado and the price is fair. One I can drive before it is pulled the other is in great shape from a ruputable person.

Thanks for the advice guys!
