mounts? or ????

You are likely going to hear this from several folks, but....
Question first - Is the problem there above 2100 rpm in all gears? Or is just
most noticable in 4th or 5th, as you are cruising you fav road?
Thinking that it might be road speed, not necessarily motor speed dependent,
check ALL likely rubber parts. Motor mounts may be a good start. Try trans
mounts. Also, the dreaded rubber dho-nut (hmmmm - donuts) on the driveshaft.
Then again, how about the center support on the driveshaft.
And, believe me, I also know about El Nino keeping the good things in the
garage.
