I was in the garage yesterday and noticed that my remote speed sensor on my tranny was slightly loose(904/360). I'ts a very tight install so I removed three bolts and left one at the edge from the tranny mount and let it drop and hang there to gain some wrenching room.
After I finished everything and bolted it back up I took her out for a ride and noticed I could feel the engine vibration through the floor better than before. Not sure if "better" is the right word but it is definately more pronounced. I

I was wondering if there is a chance that I tore the rubber apart by letting it hang. It wasn't the actual tranny mount that I unbolted it was the tranny cross-member that holds the mount. The mount was still bolted to the tranny and the cross-member.
 
Nevermind everyone, seems that the speed sensor got turned a little and was hitting on the crossmember causing the vibration inside. A very quick mod to the cross-member fixed the tight clearance issues I've always had since the install.
