T-18 Transmission Bolts?

Here's another goofy question; do these two bolts hold anything inside the transmission? I was thinking about using them to mount a bracket for the OD shifter and was afraid to take them out. I didn't find anything about them in the FSM. They're on the passenger-side of the trans. Thanks.

 

Bob
what trans is that ?
I can't tell from the pic
usually the od shift bracket is mounted off of the trans tower bolts

 

uh
nevermind
and I don't know on the T18

 

No, those bolts don't hold anything inside. I believe they are used to mount an e-brake handle on big truck applications. I used the one on the shift tower to mount mine (looks like there is a bolt there already holding your transfer case shifter.)

Edit: What I meant to say was I used the bolt casting on the shift tower to mount my OD shifter.

 

What GrandpaJeep said. They were also used to hold transfer case shift linkage in other 4 wheel drive applications. Nickmil.

 

Thanks guys. I'll go ahead and use them.
