ranchhopper Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Don't know if it will fit but I have a nice used one from a 237 sitting in the shed. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/49579-oil-pan-repair/#findComment-367741 Share on other sites More sharing options...
41chevy Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Clean the area and Braze in a patch. Lower heat than welding and easier to do a larger area.with out any warp. Low enough temp to even use MAP gas if you want.

Hobert62 Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 When my dad took his off his KW with a signature cummins, and started cleaning up to weld there where many bad spots still covered in paint that weren't leaking yet. He ended up buying a new one. Check it out good before u put to much time in patching it.

Timmyb Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Is it cracked around the sump plug? Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/49579-oil-pan-repair/#findComment-367800 Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex g Posted April 19, 2017 Author Share Posted April 19, 2017 I have a line on a good used one I'm gonna check it out on weekend. It's not cracked just crusty and thin.Sent from my SM-J320W8 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/49579-oil-pan-repair/#findComment-367824 Share on other sites More sharing options...
