    if the cracks are not severe and aren't causing leaks you should be ok. it is very common for our transmissions to have small hairline cracks in the casing around the differential and shift rod area.

    are you sure they are even cracks... most times its just casting flash. Unless you can see somthing leaking through it or its gonna break or somthing... leave it alone
