Also swapped all of my sensors into the new trans. That cleared up the temp light and overdrive issue.

Brake, abs and speedo were still a problem so I changed the sensor in the rear diff. Turns out that went bad at the same time as the trans went out. Changing the sensor fixed the issues. So far I've put about 50 miles on everything and it seems to be alright so far.

I'm still planning on having my original trans rebuilt. Should I stay away from the stage 2 transmission rebuild kits on eBay or are they decent? They appear to be the quality ones.

Look at this on eBay http://www.ebay.com/itm/272029129819

That's what I was thinking too. The only thing is it doesn't include the electronics but I will email them and see if they offer them. Of not, I can always purchase those seperate.
