Fly Wheel welded to the Torque Converter?
In my endless quest to get a transmission that actualy WORKS, somehow my flywheel got cracked and I need a new one. I called Dodge a few months back and was quoted a price for a fly wheel for 35-40 bucks. Well the truck has sat because of a bad tranny for a while now, butthe time has come to get rid of this thing, so I need to fix it first. Called Dodge again to order the fly wheel, and he says that the fly wheel is welded to the torque converter and can't be bought seperately, or that I could buy an aftermarket flywheel ( yeah right, can't find one!) but it would have to be welded to the torque converter to work right. Is this true? This guy also was trying to tell me that Durangos came with a manual transmission, so I'm not likely to go on his word. Thanks for any input!

RE: Fly Wheel welded to the Torque Converter?
ok thanks! I knew that didn't sound right! I wa stold by a shop that teh fly wheel iteself was cracked, not the flex plate. When the truck is running, and you put it in gear, it makes a gosh awful clicking noise. Is it possibly not the flywheel? And where can I get a flywheel besides Dodge, I haven't found anywhere else? Thanks!
