However I was able to utilize it's heart to give life to...
1987 Suzuki Samurai, Powered by MB OM601 and 4 speed auto.
Converted by myself with homemade engine mounts and a custom intermediate shaft. Turbo charged with Mitsubishi Mighty Max Turbo and custom Intake plenum, exhaust manifold and top mount inter cooler.
Hey guys, would anybody be able to tell me which contact on a 88 260E trans I would power with a pedal to the metal switch? Im thinking about using a toggle to feed power to this circuit when I want the trans to use 1st gear.

A 260e doesnt start in first gear? That doesnt sound normal. I would imagine it would just be the existing kick down switch. Does the kick down switch not work?

It may be a lost cause but I thought if I powered this circuit with a toggle it would lock me in first gear, for certain off road situations

Sorry, should have clarified, I'm wondering where the signal from the factory floor switch would be sent. I don't have a Mercedes car around my Mercedes drivetrain... See signature.

(07-29-2011, 03:32 PM)winmutt Oh a should be a roundish looking solenoid on the back of trans I think.
Sweet, I think I've seen that, if I remember correctly it looks like a little black bellows and it points straight rearward with a single black wire exiting it?

I think what you're after is a shift lever with the "B" position. Like this:
P
R
N
D
S
L->B
I think these are usually found on 300SD's
The "B" position is the same shift rod position as "L" but with a switch closed.
Wire that into the kick down switch harness.
