    Have you ever used an impact screw driver with the torx bit to try and remove the bellhousing? Might work better.

      That’s actually how I broke it hahaha, dumb bolts are awful to get out

    Also, what app do you use for thumbnails?

      I use mematic, and when I do the text and stuff I leave some room on the bottom so when I save the picture, I can go and crop out the bottom where it says “made with mematic”

      Haha yes. Some things you don’t even look for, they’re gone. 🤣

    You could just bolt both trans together then you know it would be flat. Sense you can’t get the bell housing off

      Basically yeah that would have worked perfect if I could do it here, but I ended up bringing it to a shop near here to have it welded, and it would be rough having to bring like 6 feet of transmission to him 🤣

      Thanks! It’s welded up now, hopefully it’ll be a good transmission.

    Wasted like 13 minutes of my time waiting to see that this guy didn't do anything right. I'm trying to figure out how I can fix my own bell housing, not how some rando failed on his. I already knew not to try to MIG aluminum without a spool gun.

      I’m not sure if you read the title or not but “fail” usually means it didn’t go as planned
      After this experience I dropped it off at a shop and the guy charged me like 40$ to weld it up and did a very clean job so I guess that’s my advice to you also.

      @@StationroadRatrods yeah I did read the title. I just thought you had done it the "right" way and it still failed for some reason. I'm having a pro weld mine because I don't trust myself to get it perfectly straight. Thanks and sorry for being grouchy before.

    • @StationroadRatrods

      It’s all a learning experience that’s for sure, and that’s why I brought it to someone else after having the trouble I had.
      After having the bell housing welded and going through the trouble of rebuilding it, the damn thing wouldn’t move with less than half throttle so I was feeling pretty grouchy too 🤪
      No worries at all man, good luck with your build.
      If you haven’t already, look up the “sloppy transbrake” it’s amazing on the 80E

      I just filled in a fist size hole on mine with an htp invertig 221. It was pure hell and I'm a very good weldor
