Ok, Ive made a quick compelation photo to pinpoint my issue. The O/D has been completely no-worky since the vehicals purchase, and from what I hear, many years before as well.
I'm about to take on the bypass mentioned on this thread...

I have a 245 DL wagon non-turbo with auto transmission, so I'm no frets about the issue of overdrive always on, as the tranny will work the pressures to assure actuall 4 gear selctions.
But to get to this point, I bent a spare 12mm wrench, and it worked PURFECT for the first bolt towards the rear of the car. I even have a couple brand new bolts to go back in place as the ones on now are overly rusted... which leads me to my point...
<<(bloody-red highlite is the culprit in photo)>>
The bolt to the front of the car is completly stuck. I unhooked the shiftlink to start, giving plently of room for the wrench. Yet after moving to a small vice grip, a slightly larger bent wrench of the same fashion filled with automotive metal putty (which gave way and spun round as well), its still stuck. Any 'simple' ways to get this bolt unstuck so I can easily swoop this out and get the O/D going again?
Im doing my best to avoid dropping the trans to do this so any options to dodge that would be held in high respect... aww heck... who am I kidding, any tips here would be heaven sent... Thanks in advance and in past for this boards amazing connectivity of knowledge!
