    Default I need a welder


    Anybody on here know where I can find a welder that can repair an aluminum bell housing.The throw out bearing came apart thus allowing the fork to come loose inside the bell housing and busted a hole in my bell housing.Any help would be appreciated.Name: Grenaded clutch 001.jpg Views: 517 Size: 63.5 KBName: Grenaded clutch 005.jpg Views: 545 Size: 55.6 KB

    If it isn't structural, and it doesn't appear to be, clean it up and fill it in with JB Weld. All you need to do is keep the road dirt and water out and the JB Weld will do that.

    Got my trans back and Ace did a bang up job of the repairs. They do all types of aluminum repair. Boats etc.Was pretty cheap, fast, and can't believe how well done the repair was.They have a awesome machining shop!
