You need to have kind of a rough surface for the JB weld to hold but it works better if its between something thats bolted together.Also if you can get to it with a drill you can drill a hole in the end,tap it,put a machine screw in it,cut off the screw,drill another holehalf in the crack half in the screw,keep going like this untill you get it all the way across the crack.I saw an old diesel engine block that had thrown a rod through the side fixed that way.It takes a while but it works.I think it was about a 3/16 screw they used.
