Hi,

when pulling the transmission, one of the bolts securing the transmission case to the cars body, snapped. The bolt broke in two, so half (most) of it is still in there.

After the unit came out, I could see why. The bracked is rusted beyond recognition.

So, what exactly sits on top of that bracket? An ordinary nut, or a nut welded to the bracked, or a piece of "pipe" with threads in it?

Any photos of this brackes, non-rusted, anyone?

 

Short pipe with threads in it if I recall right. Should be similar as bracket on other side if it's in any better shape. Ordinary nut with large load bearing washer works fine if bracket is still solid enough.
