4 speed housing crack!
Guys,
Maybe just need to vent as much as ask for advice.
I picked up my rebuilt 4 speed for my 73 W30, and was wiping it down to detail paint as I planned to install in the car tomorrow (Ohio is getting it's first nice weekend of the year. And, the local Olds club chapters Spring Dust-off is next Sunday.), anyway, one of the mounting ears has a crack in the web!!!
I'm pretty sure it wasn't there when I first installed the tranny last winter. I could have missed it I guess.
What are my options? Can this thing be "heliarced" (sp?) without being taken apart again? I just paid like $800.00 for the rebuild. You think they would have checked the case out for problems.
I am not sure if I'm more angry or depressed! I've waited all week to get the car out........
By the way, the other three mounting feet are fine.
Anyone get this fixed without problems?
What a bummer!
