Vibration issue

[gtsfirefighter]

Today the carrier bearing was replaced as mine was shot. After the front shaft and bearing was pulled out it you could see the ripped rubber.
Anyway, after getting it back together I took it for a drive and noticed a big difference in the smoothness factor but it still has a vibration when decelerating. I can also feel it somewhat while accelerating. I feel it in the mid section of the car under my front seats.I was wondering if the transmission mount would make it do this as well. It's an automatic and when I boost I can feel the gear shift lever pulling back. I have a hard shift anyway and when it does shift I feel the lever jerk with it.
Just wondering if anyone has had this issue as well. Any similar issues I found while searching just dealt with manual trannys and one piece driveshafts.

How's your motor mounts, trans mount, and double check the tightness of the driveshaft to diff bolts.....I installed a single p ds and reused the bolts and lock washers only to have them come loose again! Purchased new hardware from Toyota and it's been awesome.

Check that the Rear Bonded tube in a tube hasn't slipped out of phase, just sight along the Uni joints they should all be perfectly in line.
(common failure with these cars)

I'll have to crawl up under there and check that out.
I'm thinking I'll probably replace my tranny mount anyway since it's been soaked in oil for so long. I hear that's bad for them.

Thanks.

I honestly believe that this topic should be a sticky as it's so common and that pic shows exactly what's usually the problem but easily over looked!!!
