Default Does a 2004r use VSS?

Have the tranny under the car and noticed that the 2004r has a 4 prong adapter instead of a screw in speedo.


Is there a cheap conversion for this?

No, that four prong hookup is the lockup convertor connection, or in the stock application, where the computer hooks up. It has the standard cable drive. Look in the tailhousing, passenger side. It is probably hard to see if you have the transmission in with the crossmember there as it is right above the crossmember.

So if I don't put anything there will it just not lock up? This is my first rebuild so I'm not the most knowledgable I just had a good manual. This is the connecter that ppl have said you can just manually lock up with a switch?
