I also agree it's not worth trying to fix. So are you going to use another auto or go to a 5 speed?

My what a lovely boat anchor you have.



A very competent machine shop could probably repair the casing - for a hefty fee, of course - but then you still have to fix the guts. Anything is fixable, but economically, this is a looser. Keep it just in case you need any parts (like a transfer clutch, or valve body, or a solenoid, or front differential, or, or, or...) but consider a slightly smaller paperweight.

The best option for a single guy is to place a sheet of glass over it and call it a Coffee table...

The best option for a married guy is to give it to a single guy to make a table out of
