That's not as bad as suddenly realizing the transmission is hanging from
the speedometer cable... I doubt they exist anymore so make that some
sort of sensor wiring.

There is a speedometer gear which has to be pulled out of the transmission:

If I had known it was so easy to disable an odometer, the vehicle would
have only 20K miles on it instead of 180K! (jk)

I took great pains to ensure the electrical harness was clear at all times.

I even removed the upstream lamba probe so as to to prevent damage:

That upstream oxygen sensor crossed the transmission but I couldn't unclip
it so I just unbolted it. I will replace it as it's the original O2 sensor.

I probably should have bought a downstream o2 sensor also to replace but I
didn't think of it when I was ordering the clutch parts.
