    I recently pulled the wrong bolt on an 02 TJ manual xmission its just behing the refill plug..in my haste I thought it was the fluid servicing bolt....I know I know... anyway I can't put the bolt back in like a sleeve or something slid down in the way. When I start it it sounds like the floating whatever it is blocking the bolt is rattling around.... any ideas or am I fixing to learn a whole lot about dropping a xmission... jeep Newby in Fll as you can tell
