Ok, sorry. I'm not sure what bolt broke but can you get a vise grips on a piece of it and turn it out? Or if you can get a drill to it drill out the remains? Or use an easy-out? You need to drill a small hole through the middle of it and then thread in an easy out which has reverse type threads on it and as it threads in it will bind up and start to turn the broken bolt out. Good luck.

the bolt that was broken off is connected to linkages inside of the transmission...i had to open the trans pan and disconnect stuff then push the bolt from the transmission out......
heres the diagrahm, the broken bolt(which i still need to find is #707 and i need the seal (#708)) but if you look at the diagrham i broke the threads to the far left of the bolt, after the threads everything to the left is the transmission...
what i need to know now is where can i get the bolt and seal???
