The starter took a poop and took 3 teeth off the converter with it it there a way for me to replace just the gear without replacing the whole converter I like the converter. I have another stock one with a good ring gear on it. can I take it to a converter shop and have them remove and replace the busted one?

thanks guys

my converter guy fixed mine by welding and reshaping a tooth that was missing. i didne't even ask him to do it works fine.

that's cool. I was thinking of doing that myself, I wasn't sure if it'd be strong enough. cool.

We used to stock ring gears for converters when I worked the parts dept. Don't know if they are still available or not.
