The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area Driveline 1946 3 speed Transmission bracket bolt

So the ?crack is actually from the casting, so no leak there. Thanks for that. The bracket who knows what that was for. The hole in the case is a hole for removing internal shafts for transmission repair. Instead of putting the correct plug in the hole they put JB weld or something in there to seal. It is leaking there so I put gasket seal caulking on there. Have to wait to see if it holds if I have it clean enough. Give it 24 hours to cure and fill. Also where the torque tube ball screws on is leaking there. Would caulking hold there or would it fly off? It needs a gasket there. But before I get new gaskets I want to make sure the plug hole doesn’t leak. I guess if all worked out I would like a 4 speed tranny which may be a challenge or just a different case. Switching tranny’s may need to be a different thread! Thanks
