Looks good, I was actually thinking you could make a Z-shaped piece out of flat stock, and use the bolt right above the section you cut off. I guess it might be hard to get a sharp enough bend in such a short distance.
I'm still confused on how you can replace the O-ring without removing the rod?
With the valve body removed, can you slide it all the way out?
I tried to make the z shaped piece you mentioned but found it more difficult. I was not satisfied with end results.
The rod is being pushed out, not removed. Once pan is removed, you can push pin from opposite end and push it out. I didn't have to remove valve body. I just had to get tranny filter out of the way. I had to use a cheater piece (a 1/4 in socket extension) to get pin to push out far enough. Then with pin pushed out, you remove old o ring and place on new one. Then push pin back in. I had to gently tap pin with wooden dowel rod to get back in. New o ring was causing small resistance. I would remove pressure from band before you begin as a pre-caution just in case pin slides out to much.

Can someone tell me what size O-ring is used for the pivot?
I got the fancy gasket from the dealer, and figured while I was in there I would replace this O-ring. I think I've got an old dash bracket to make a stop for the pin on the outside. I will also finally get around to replacing the kickdown shaft seal. I spent weeks looking for one. Just happened to be in NAPA one day asked about it. $1.50 on the shelf. Guy on the phone told me part number on their website was no good. No one else even had a clue. Found a guy on ebay selling them for $15 + shipping. The kickdown seal didn't appear to be bad or leaking, but I did replace the shift shaft seal, and figured that one needed replaced too.
