It takes about 2 hours to pull the trans out of the truck. Then tear down time. Then repair the case, then reassemble, then reinstall. Total time at a good shop would be about 4 days. I know if I drop my truck off at the trans shop I go to on a tuesday I have it back on Friday.

The JB weld would work for a patch job. But for how long who knows. It may last for 100,000 miles it may last for 10 miles. Depends if something hit the trans to cause the damage or if something broke inside the trans. Being you drove it to and from the gym. I would think something in the road it the trans and caused the damage. That is a wierd spot for the trans to become damaged unless something let loose inside (which I doubt because the truck is still driveable). Or if something caused damage from the outside of the trans ( which is more likely what happened.).
