I found a zf5 on craigslist tonite, it from an 89 f250 diesel 120k that was in a wreck, it has a cracked bellhousing from a wreck that it was in. I had about a 4in crack, but it expanded when the guy pulled the motor
Question is can i take it to a weld shop and have the bellhousing welded back up, also im not sure what the case is made out of, i know its not cast or steel, but is it aluminium or something else like magnesium?
The guy said 50 bucks for the trans, shifters, and the clutch setup, should I make the 320 mile round trip drive to get it or is the trans junk cuz its cracked? Worst case is id be out $50 bucks plus my time and fuel to get it, the only time have have to go get it is tomorrow morning so quick replys would be awesome
thanks all
