The TCM was replaced because the transmission was not shifting out of first gear. After it was changed the speedometer stopped working. Could the TCM need to be reprogramed? Also, the back end always seems to be fishtailing when the car is moving. Are their rear sway bar bushings in the back that could cause this?

Yes, needing to adapt ( program ) the TCM to the vehicle is possible. I would take your vehicle to a good shop and have the rear checked out ASAP, this does not sound safe.
