Torque converter crack

Anybody can say to chock a thing full of new parts. It's not their money. Or time. You want to take the pump out and take it apart just to change the bushing; it's your car. I myself would be more concerned with the clutches than that bushing. The edges of the bushing still look good to me. Bushings will get sharp distorted edges when they wear down very far because they usually melt a little bit; being soft metal; with a melting point half that of steel, but I see straight, fairly full edges on the bushing. Not perfect; no; there is some wear. If there's friction material in the pan then rebuild it. As long as you have oil pressure, the bushing won't hurt the new converter. Rule is: If you don't know for sure that your trans is to the full mark, then Shut It Off. (preferably in neutral so you can read the stick). Because low fluid level is what scuffed that converter.
