but, a 1/4" bolt on a tranny? for what? The pan??

_-_-bear

This is a Mopar 46RH auto transmission. The gearshift cable bracket is held
in place with a 5/8" bolt through a cast-in ear, then has a long extension
to keep the bracket located and straight. This is where the 1/4" bolt goes.
A stud would work fine for this, as there is no real force on this end of
the bracket, so thanx to those who suggested it...
