Diff bush and vibration still there?

Hi again,for the past 2 years my 2.5 d, goes into a gentle kangaroo jerking when i reach around 30 MPH. I replaced the diff bush and engine mounts and it has improved but not entirely gone. Has anyone experienced this or have any suggestions as to the cause. Thanks Al

Vibrations can be difficult to diagnose even when its one owns but feeling them. And with out knowledge of what has been and hasn't been replaced or checked for wear makes it even more difficult. But here are some stabs in the dark. If you feel it in your steering. Check steering components tie rod ends for play. The steering damper shock is often a problem. Also check the Ball joints for play.
And are your tires in good shape or aged? A separating tire could cause this also.
