Weiding Aluminum

Can a transmission case be welded ? If yes looking for referals.

Yes, depending on where it needs to be welded. If re-machining is needed after welding it might not be worth having done. If it's just a crack in the bell housing or any other external surface I don't think it would be a problem. Call Chris Razor at High tech welding in Ypsilanti I think. The guy can weld wood. I've seen him do it.

Ill tell you if its feasible/worth welding.

My guess is that you have to have the trans gutted and the case cleaned too, if you want to get it welded good. Unless a little edge piece or something broke off.

It depends where the crack is, he has a hoist so it’s possible. A pic would help to determine for sure.

Probably weldable. I know they were welding up bosses like that on LS1 engines while in the car.
