This bracket does no supporting of the transmission.  It's held in place
with ONE bolt into the transmission case.  The other hole goes over a pin
sticking out of the transmission case.  The bracket merely assures the
cables for the Pro Con Ten system can't slip over the fixture on the
transmission that puts tension on the cables -- and thereby puts tension on
the seat belts --  if the transmission moves rearward in a frontal collision.
