Well the moron who used to own my truck apparently pulled the motor or trans at some point and just neglected to put two driver's side bellhousing bolts back in. Can you guys tell me what size I should be looking for? The only thing I can recall is that it had a 13mm 6pt head.
 






I don't have a definite answer for you. If I had to guess, i'd say 10mmX1.5 by about 50 or 60mm long. You are right about the 13mm head. There are a couple different lengths in different locations though -- they weren't all the same length. You could guess and pick up a few to try, or you could pluck out one of the easy ones on the lower right to check for sure.

While you are in there, make sure the top bolts are there. Those are the ones that people usually leave out because they are harder to reach.
 






Well I do know the bottom most 2 are the same length. The 2 on the right immediately above the bottom one were the same length too. I'm guessing the missing two on the left side above the Lowe most left bolt are probably the same. I have gto to the top two bolts, let's pray they're there lol
