of depending on the transmission if you have the 4 spd electronic automatic trans there are two, an output sensor which is located under the battery box on the left side of the shift linkage and the input sensor is right under the trans cooling lines right of the shift linkages! if you have a non electronic trans, the speed sensor is located on the backside of the trans and has three wires and atached to the tranny with a single bolt! hope this helps

It is not recommended to pull a trailer with automatic trans in overdrive, put in drive only. When attempting to pull without locking out overdrive, trans will continue to shift from drive to 0verdrive causing a massive heat buildup. Heat is not good for automatic transmissions, and will eventually cause failure, causing your wallet a very bad day!
It should be on the rear tailhousing of the transmission.
