When pulling the transmission that I purchased out of another car, they said it dropped on the ground and Cracked the Outer Case.

I was told that the area where the damage is does not affect the functioning of the transmission.

They also said that the bell housing isn’t removable but where it’s broken doesn’t affect the use of the transmission. In the pictures, they circled where it’s broken.

Please let me know if I am being told the truth, or should I get my money back?


Thank you so kindly.

Good morning,

Get your money back.

The spot where it is broken has a bolt hole for the bell housing the motor. Three bolts are not enough.

Get another transmission.

Good morning, Roy,

You don't know how much I appreciate the information. That was my first thought, but I wanted to hear it from a professional mechanic. Thank you again.
