Tig Welding Broken Aluminum Transmission Case

Tig welding a broken aluminum transmission case for a local transmission shop. No fake UA-cam welding here. This is the whole job! Shows you how long it actually takes to weld broken aluminum properly. This is my process for repairing a broken boss from an aluminum transmission housing. I hope it helps if you've got a broken transmission case boss or dowel you are thinking of repairing. Slow and thorough is the way to go!

You should probably move that bottle of acetone next time

No response yet . Well here goes - got pretty good sized crack on AC compressor mounting bolt goes into oil pan . So far no problem yet ..Would mechanics normally weld or they do something else to fix something like this ?

[@MechanicSecrets]

I would not normally weld an ac compressor. There are rubber and temperature sensitive parts inside. If you were going to repair I would completely disassemble and then weld, so you don't damage anything. Then get a seal kit / rebuild kit to reassemble.

One of the bolt holes is missing a big Hole how would I fix it?
