• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

opions please

this is an 07 te610 that i just bought, i discovered this while going over things, i'm a little concerned, please give me some input, thankshusky 003.jpg
 
Oopsie, looks like the chain picked something up or came off at some point. Was there a front chain guide under the cover to keep it off the case?
 
I would leave it if it is not a stressed part and is not leaking. I would put another chain guard on however.
 
I would bring it back to the guy that sold it to you and get your money back! Every time you pull the clutch it's going to put pressure on that area. The cost to replace the case is $1500-$1800

Could probably be welded up and gusseted for more strength, should the need arise.
 
Call George and point him to the picture. He's undoubtedly seen this. 1 714 540-2920 ....and will explain if fix is good or replace.
 
Just have it fixed.
Done several like that $200-$300
Really not a big deal just have to get it clean make a slug, weld it up, hone bore for clearence. bee good to go.
Later George
 
thanks for the replies guys, feeling a little better about it. the guy i bought it from still should have mentioned this. when you say have it repaired, can this be done without disassembling everything, where do you have something like this repaired?
 
I think your going to have to pull that case off and take it to a welder/machine shop or may a dealer.

Where are you in the US?

Many guys ship stuff to George in ice chests, well sealed with silver tape....engines even.

Don't know if the total repair can be done in the frame...you'd have to check....phone.
