Let us know if that was it. I've been worried about my tranny mounts, too.

kinda figured it was likely trans mount related...

Did you remember to take the DB out of the trunk? When you put it in reverse it may shift forward and the vibration that you feel is the DB rolling forwad and hitting the back of your seat.

Thanks Mike, I'm hoping that was the problem but either way they were gone and needed to be replaced. I feel much better and at least if it wasn't the problem we could take those 2 problems out of equation.

Thanks again guys and I'll make sure to update on whether or not the issue is resolved.
