[QUOTE="JMichael, post: 381744, member: 7544"] If you and your husband can bend the transom brace back together so the crack is minimal and then brush the paint off of the bracket in the area that needs to be welded, it should help with cost. Doing this prep work instead of making the welder do it, means less of his time spent and the less he charges you. If you do decide to do this, use a stainless steel brush. You should be able to remove that top bolt and bend it back pretty easy. Once it's been welded you can try to pull the transom up to the brace and then bolt it or just install the bolt and pull them together. I'd suggest you try pulling the transom back up to the brace though. [/QUOTE]
