it seems i lost the nut that goes onto the shift bracket that attaches itself to the tranny pan. its the bolt that holds the cable to the bracket. its a 7/16 socket nut but im unsure of thread size...can someone check for me? its a 700r4 by the way, and i need to get a new one asap

 

Why dont you just take the bolt with you, to a place where you can pick out the right nut ?

 

because its attached to this linkage and its all together...i dont wanna take it all apart, no one happens to know the size?

 

1/4 - 20 . Unless it's metric.

 

It will be metric--700r4..

 

so what would it be if its metric? this is the only thing i need to get the car going decently

 

1/4 inch in mm is about 6.5 if that helps. Its kind of off the top of my head.

 

Try a 6MM X 1.0MM if it looks like 1/4" thread. It will probably
fit in a 10 MM wrench.

 

nevermind i found it 8.8 metric
