Well.. it's kinda important as it holds your tranny to your motor. The 4 bolts holding the block to the engine stand are most important.. but if you can I'd find a new bracket for the passenger side.

If you go in the for sale section I'm sure there are people parting their trucks out. I might even have one of those lying around, but it'd take some time to get to texas..
