Cracked Trans Housing

While attempting to remove a bolt (that holds on the slave cylinder) that had broken off I cracked the housing. Can I repair it (How?) or do I need a new tranny?

Thanx

Michael

cracked the bell housing? Its unobtainium but it can be welded at a shop, (don't even consider doing this yourself... aluminum will kick your *** if you try to weld it and aren't a professional). You could consider JB weld, butthe bell housing transfers a good portion of hte tranny's wheight to the engine and engine mounts, not sure how well JB weld would hold up in that situation...
