- A customer sent these Honda CR500 cases that had a crank rod go through the cases pretty bad. He bought this bike as a project with this damage from the previous owner. These cases were vapor blasted prior to being sent to me. That made a huge difference with cleaning prep needed. In this video we build up the material with a Miller 280DX Tig Welder. Re-machined and lapped in the cases and it was good to go. Doing this repair work is worth it when you cannot just order up another pair of cases from the dealer.

I can relate to the video. I've repaired a couple of two stroke case sets that needed repair. Had them tigged in that very fashion and did the subsequent profile work. It very rewarding in the end.
I weld a lot of cast aluminum and built a vapor blaster just for cleaning prior to welding. Great repair!
This is awesome to know that you can actually repair the cases and everything else I have a quad I'm trying to restore and it has a broken stator cover from the chain not easy to get them anymore
Never mind on the filler I just read your answer to another commenter below, Thanks for posting and again great video!
nice job on welding cases/frames! came from Cameron Niemela
Thank you! Working on more stuff to keep posting to the channel!
This guy is good, period!!
Great work!
Thank you!
Well repaired
Love staring at your glove while you repair the case lol.
Awesome work, wish I lived closer to you, would love to give you some work. I'm almost ready for welding on my CR500AF project, hope the person I ultimately pick in Las Vegas does a good job, my life will depend on it. Subscribed for more awesomeness.
Check with The Fabrication Series on TH-cam. He’s in your area and can get you connected with someone that is right for the job.
incredible! keep on going!
Thank you!
Absolutely awesome work....you definitely know what you’re doing, very impressive. I have a set of cases with similar holes. I may be in touch if I can’t find any replacements...no new ones in stock anywhere
Thank you. Just let me know if I can help 👍🏻
@@trickenggdo you still do this kind of work I got the dreaded arctic at 1000 with destruction starter
This is the proper way you repair 2 stroke cases . I cringe when I see guys use a file and bled it in with a dremel tool. Your machinist should face his work after he is done on mating tig welded surfaces. Great repair.
Thank you 🤘🏻
Great work! I was thinking you'd cut out some aluminum to fit the missing areas and weld them in, but the stack the weld method looks like it worked awesome! What filler rod did you use?
Enjoyed that. Would also have been interested in the welder, gas, tungsten settings and the filler rod type.
Honda NC750X Stuff Miller 280DX, 2% thoriated tungsten, straight Argon, 4043 filler, 55-60 on balance, anywhere from 90-120 hz. I generally just control amps by foot with machine wide open.
Trick Eng - thanks. Appreciate the data.
Hi could you Tig weld the case while still in the bike? Would you fry the electrics? Would aluminium brassing rod and gas be a better option?
Thanks for making the video!
Case needs to be dissembled for proper repair if the crack is all the way through the case where it leaks oil. Never a good idea to weld the motor or chassis with the ECU plugged in and battery connected, and fuel tank installed of course. These cases are not the correct grade of aluminum for brazing or it would be a great application otherwise.
what setup are you using .... filler rod, tungesten specs , amps, cleaning action , frequency, sheilding gas....?? .....a case repair like this is it posible and any dirt bike cases with alumium casing? thanxs!..... awesome work btw!!
Read the other comments it’s been answered 👍🏻
What diameter tungsten do you prefer for a job like this? I found your response below on the “type” but I didn’t see diameter?
3/32 for applications like this. I use 1/16 for thin buildup work.
@@trickengg Thank you
I have a question is there some way I can get in contact you about some work!! What you did was amazing and have a similar problem with my bike and cannot find the parts online
Dan Holmes thank you for reaching out on Facebook 👍🏻
Actually the repair is most likely stronger than the original casting, I wasn't sure at first but when I saw the Black junk in the inside weld I figured it had to be cast instead of a Billet piece. Nice job & good video.
What was the grit on the sandpaper?
120 grit
Amazing! Where can i get intouch with you. Iv been chasing cases for years. Id imagen you could save me a lot of money an disappointment buying other used cases sometimes in worse shape then I'm already working with.

What grit sandpaper did you use to lap the half’s
I believe this was 120 grit
Do you have to worry about the tolerance getting tighter with lapping in ? I’m asking because I’m having my cases repaired on my Yz450f and I might have to lap my cases. I don’t want anything to bind
@@HIinfidel technically you need to have that in mind. When I do these repairs I weld the case above the gasket surface and then machine it really close back to the gasket surface. And then I’m just blending it in. You would have to be very aggressive and do a lot of work just to remove .002-.005 thousandths lapping cases like this. If you remove a lot it could at some point put things in a bind. But I’m simply not going to that extent.
Need a repair similar to this, however not nearly as bad. Any idea of a quote? Where are you located, I’m in Michigan and am looking for reputable shops that can do similar work.
Send us a message from our website and we will get you a quote once you send over pictures. trickeng.com/contact/

How much does a repair like this cost?
It’s not cheap. Repairs extensive like this take hours to get right. Repairs range from $120 to $500 depending on the mount of labor involved. Always look for good used parts first. Repair is a last resort.
@@trickengg better than I expected ngl
@@jettgriffith7216 always depends on the application 👍🏻
