Only important if you want the ABS brakes to work.

It has nothing to do with the speedo. If you changed gear ratios, then that would be the cause. Did you do any research before the rear swap?

It's for the abs... if your speedo is off then the new diff has different gears in it than the one you took out. Easy fix with hp tuners.
