If both aren't working and the vehicle (ECU/TCU) is behaving as though it has no speed input, then I'd continue to focus on the sensor. Maybe it's just a wiring issue and not the gear inside the diff? I haven't had any experience with the gear in the diff myself, so I'm not sure. I find it unlikely that two mechanical things would fail at the same exact time, however (unless one breaking caused the other to break, but that's usually kind of obvious). I think it's more likely that disturbing the aged wiring while replacing the sensor caused a break in one of the wires or something. How brittle did the wiring seem to you? (sure it's plugged in good?) Try looking down the hole that the speed sensor threads into?

Edit - another idea: Maybe the sensor didn't get threaded in far enough for the little spinny thing at the bottom to fit into its slot?
