What ya gonna do about the broken bell housing? If it weren't for that I'd have offered a lot more :D

[rav320uk]

Wel, luckily the bell housing has broken at the top, and no bolts normally get fitted, so a cltch change is eay, but it'll get mig'd.

mig on cast aluminum is not easy. and tiging with the trans assembled will kill bearings. lastly its good practice to pre heat cast materials before welding to ensure good penetration and less deformmation of the material with minimal heat from your machine.

Thanks for the advice, but i won't be doing the welding.
One of the guys who goes to the same college as me is a welder by trade, and he's going to do the job.:D

Little update on the proceedings today, and for tomorrow. :D

All assembled.
