Message: [QUOTE="Lt.Dan, post: 1440845, member: 24137"] Well, i got the truck over to the same shop yesterday to get them to look at the coolant leak that i thought was coming from the oil cooler flange. He called me today and tells me its not the oil cooler, its the front cover has a pin hole in it. Right behind the water oulet on the passenger side.... Only way to replace the front cover is to pull the motor and drop the pan.... So, him knowing what i do for a living (welder/fabricator), he suggested i just weld the pinhole up with a TIG welder, as its just cast aluminum. So i went with the route that didnt involve 18,000,000 hours of labor and picked the truck up today. He marked the pinhole with a paint pen so i could find it. Now, its in a really screwed up position that idk if i can get a TIG torch in, even if i pulled all the front accessories off. Do you guys have another possible way of filling up this hole without possibly causing another problem? Either way, ill be digging into it this weekend. [/QUOTE]
