When I'm shifting into 3rd gear, the truck has a very obvious vibration. I feel the same vibration when I'm in 5th gear and going past 60 mph.

I understand the truck is older (mileage) but is there anything I could check in the meantime to maybe avoid having to buy another vehicle?

I've been real pleased with my chevy s-10 and do not want to get a new vehicle - let alone the monthly payments, so I'm trying to see if it would be cost efficient to make minor repairs versus a new purchase.

Any help would be appreciated.

thanks!

Hey I would check under and see if the transmission mount is bad. Easy to check. Go under and on the tail of the tranny u can see the mount. Check it and see if the rubber on it is not broken also push the tail of the trans and pull etc and se if moves too much. And mightaswell check themotor mounts too. The trans mount is easy to install.
