BELL HOUSING SCREW HOLES

If the bolt holes are.not oval shaped then just have them Helicoil them. You don't need to replace bellhousings. But if you just had a clutch in stalled two months prior to this. Then I would be calling whoever did it and ask them how they are going to warrenty it.

 

No, I learned how metal reacts to various stresses while completing my PhD in Materials Science and Metallurgy from the University of Cambridge. Any other questions CharlieK?.....(JK)

The truth is I learned about equipment damage from first being an truck driver, then an owner operator, then I owned my own trucking company. I've been a heavy equipment and class 8 commercial truck mechanic for a long time. I might have seen a thing or two here and there...
I no longer work as a heavy iron fixer because my tired old ##* isn't interested in crawling under vehicles that can carry 80 tons any longer (oil field heavy equipment mechanic)

These days I'm back to touring the country, in the large house KW pictured to my left, on cruise control. Nicer view from up here than down there.

 

It is done all the time.

 

Naw! No more questions

Well, maybe one... Is "Waller" a word?

 

It is here in NC

 

I would helicoil them and see if they hold torque before replacing a flywheel housing.
