So I finally got my motor tore apart to get to the trans and what do I discover? My center crankcase is cracked right near the motor mount! If there is a way to patch it or if anyone has a replacement for cheap let me know! Otherwise I will have a lot of parts for sale.

Sorry I was pretty aggregated when I saw this. It goes all the way through but not all the way around. Not sure if a redneck patch of uh weld will do the trick or not.

I should have cases if you need some.

That would make my day! All I need is the center though. Let me know what you want for one. Thanks Howdy!

Anyone think that I could get it welded cheaper than replacing it? I'm not sure what it costs to get this stuff welded so any thoughts?

it depends how much you can get the case for. If you don't know anyone with a tig welder,the repair will probably run you 40.00-50.00

Get the case from Howdy and have that one welded for a spare.Just my two cents.
