Auto gear shift bracket bolt

Truck in sig, auto transmission. Went to back in my drive way and the gear selector wouldn't go into reverse. Then I noticed one of the blots for the bracket the ties the transmission cable to the gear selector cables was on the floor. Funny thing is I just tightens these in the fall. Anyway it's the top bolt of the two. I can't seem to get it started. Anyone have a parts diagram so I know what i'm dealing with? Anyone have advice to get this bolt started?

I found out why the bolt fell out.





Anyone have any idea what part I should be looking at replacing? I hoping it's not the entire upper steering bracket/brace.

Getting it out was pretty strait forward.




I did cut away part of the dash to get to the bolts. I suppose the proper way would be to remove the entire dash but that would have been a lot more work.
