[QUOTE="Ol'89r, post: 1386632, member: 17212"] Mike. I prefer welding over JB Weld. Simply because, as vintage Bob pointed out, when you have a case with internal pressures, oil, gas and constant heat cycles, the JB Weld can loosen and fail over time. And when it does fail, according to Murphys law, you will be at least 30 miles from your truck. :yikes: Also, with an engine case damaged the way that one is, the welder will probably have to clamp the cases to bring the crack back together before he welds it. JB Weld won't hold the crack together like tig welding will. JB Weld is good stuff and has it's place, but I have repaired many cases that people have used JB weld on only to have it fall out at the most inopportune time. Plus, when you consider the time it takes to tear your engine down to the bare cases, why not fix it right the first time? JOE. I remember reading a post that a piece of his piston broke off and got into the lower end. That is what normally causes cracks like that. [/QUOTE]
