I was just trying to stay out of the ****storm, lol! If I had an access to a welder, and had the know how to do it, I might have tried it. JB seems to be working ok, although it's still leaking like a sieve.

Gotta get ready for work. No more pissing contests unless I'm invited.

wost case, you are out a few bucks in JB weld. You haven't paid $$ to have it welded together, only to find the tranny was shot. Once you have determined it will drive, and shift properly, I would suggest getting the hole fixed professionally, but I am sure you are smart enough to think these things already. Sounds like there are a couple of people that aren't giving you enough credit....

tornado_735,

10-4, you might note that I never mentioned which steps you absolutly should take or how many. I noticed right off you appear to have a plan of attack and from what I've seen so far you are doing a FINE job, I mean a Mighty Fine Job of sticking to it. Keep up the GOOD WORK!!

Thank you gentlemen for the compliments I think I am going to follow Spikes advice and drive this tranny till it croaks, and just have one on standby. I am not real sure of this one's health. It thunks a little bit when you force it to downshift.

I decided I was going to be proactive about this. I had longed for, desired, and dreamed about having a Land Rover Discovery for SOOOOOOO long, and now that I have one, I'll be damned if I let it sit there and be broken. Since I work thie F-ed up shift, and am more than likely going to **** my day away sleeping, I don't know how much is going to be done today. I might get up early...maybe 1pm, lol!

Glad to hear the tranny is working.
I don't have any issue with anything any of the guys have said, aren't we all a on here because we are bored? Nothing like a good sparring match to keep life interesting
