James,

I wouldnt drive the car without the torque arm. You could easily twist or break something. as far as the wiring questions


Vehicle speed sensor (leave about five inches of loose wire on the end of the sensor plug-in so you can splice your spedometer wire into the speed senor wire). Try to grab the sensor plug-in off of the donor car otherwise the dealer is the best place to locate one. They tend to run about $52 for the actual sensor and $19 for the plug-in.
that was taken from our board...

Check your transmission mount to make sure it is properly secured and has plenty of rubber. This happens to my 89 occassionally and torquing it down solves the delimna. It's also low cost...
