speedometer cable input, your new trans should already have one.

The speedo drive gear (which you have already unbolted) also has two seals (actually, a seal and an o-ring), which are creating some friction.
Just twist and pull and it should pop out.

Tap around it ..while Pulling Gently..the Aluminum around the Seal on it is usually Corroded and it Makes it hard to get off and out of the transmission.
