It should also send a signal to transmission PCM, but not certain. You might be able to get some kind of aftermarket "box" that would run off the driveshaft. Probably expensive though.

I dont remember when it changed over, but if you truck has an electronic speedometer, it gets the signal from the speed sensor as well.

yeah you need that sensor. It is a must for the trans to work properly and it also controls you speedo.
