How to take out rounded drain plug on force 85? Is there a way to drain without taking it out? Like pumping out the fluid maybe?

You could take out the Bolts(#6), and pull the Bearing Carrier out

Most folks use an impact driver with " drag link " socket .----The kind you hit with a hammer.----Use a small center puck and hammer.----It will spin out.

You could use a small Dremal cutter and make the slot slightly deeper to get grip

It may be the type that uses an allen wrench to remove.....not a slotted type.

Yes and it stripped

I do not like those.----But use a pointy punch and hammer and you can get it to turn.

Could maybe use an extractor a little larger than the stripped out hole, tap it in, twist it out. Corrosion shouldn't be an issue, being a lube plug.

Easy out. Drill the plug, insert the easy out and a bit of heat will loosen the sealer around the threads.
