I have misplaced my transmission bolts. I have had my transmission out for many months. I don't know how many bolts go in the transmission and where they go. I don't know what size or how long they are.

I have tried auto parts websites and no luck in finding the bolts for the transmission, this is all i need to get my truck back on the road. Can some please help this Veteran?

Thanks

Sorry for the delay Sergeant. Appears we missed this one.

Unfortunately the manual does not list the bolt location.

However, these are pretty standard. The longest bolts will go on the top. I bet you have two of the longest and then a few medium length and maybe a couple shorter.

Basically the shorter are going to go on the bottom. However, what I would do is just go slow and get them tight by using hand tools.

If they are too long then they will bottom out before it is tight.

I attached the process from the manual just to be sure you have it or if others need it in the future.

Let me know if you need more info and we can dig deeper. Thanks
