Default cracked casing

This weekend while riding my 85 250R atc, my loose chain came off and cracked my casing (didn't have a chain guard!). Does anyone know the cheapest place to get a new or used casing? Or if anyone has a spare one lying around that ya might wanna sell? Any info would help cause they're all a little pricey locally for me. Thanks

I had a similar issue with mine, except it was on the front (i.e. rock in field) and ended up damaging the counter balancing shaft bore to the point where JB just wouldn't cut it. Only way out was to have it welded and then re-bored or just replace it.

I ended up calling

Inland ATV's
25153 Redlands Blvd.
Loma Linda, CA 92354
www.inlandatv.com

They definitely have them new and used. I paid $185 for a used one and it even showed up with good bearings in it. Bolted it right together and have been having fun without incident. That was in September '03

I would like to use that but. The caseing is cracked by where you shift gears. I had took it to a welder but they had said that they could'nt weld where a seal is. I realy need to buy a new caseing or even a used one in good shape.
