dipstick tube bolt
Well I finally got my new trans installed The only bolt left to install is my dispstick tube bolt. The tube is inserted all the way into the trans, but I can't get that dipstick tube bolt back in. Does anyone have any tricks to get that thing in? Is it possible to secure the tube another way without putting that bolt back in? THANKS.

Next time put the dipstick bolt in first and aim it in the hole as you jack the trans up.
Other than that all you can do now is tilt the engine back and see what you can do.
Maybe a swivel socket wrapped in electrical tape and the bolt held on slightly with the tape so you can pull the socket off.
