Transmission Case Is Cracked. Can't Catch A Break.

[revhead347]

I finally got around to pulling my transmission and fixing it. Everything inside looks fine except the case is cracked. It has 3 cracks radiating from the input shaft bearing through the holes where the retainer bolts on. I don't even know how that happens.

11.5 @ 118 is how LOL

Sorry, guess it isn't that funny. But that is pretty darn fast.

I guess you have to pay to play. I have a phone call to Hanlon to look forward to tomorrow.

What tranny are you running now?

3550 with a 26 spline (TKO) input shaft. I was going to just replace the sliders and go to fiber lined blocker rings until I found the case cracked.

Yeah that doesn't look too bad. I've been up for 2 hours and I'm already $1000 into this transmission in parts and I haven't bought fluid for it.
