Well I'm in a pickle now...I soaked the thing in penetrating oil, then tried driving a larger allen driver in...got it in pretty snug, then used a 3/8" driver impact wrench and hit it with that. Nothing happened....spun the bit. More penetrating oil...cut two grooves in it with a cut-off wheel....drove the biggest phillips head 3/8" bit I had in it....hit it with the impact....same thing.

Took a cut-off wheel, cut the stinkin mount off...now nothing's left except a stud sticking out of the tailhousing. More penetrating oil. Took a pair of huge vise-grips....clamped down as hard as I could....can not budge the stupid thing. I'm afraid to try anything drastic....the tailhousing is still on the tranny....I've already put a couple nicks in it from a chisel....
