Default New axle wobble issue. One I haven't been able to search for, AND FIND

I have 90 da knuckles, 90 da axles, and dust covers removed. So I know it's not one of the usual issues in that area. The alignment came back all good other than the front camber(1.5 degrees out, which is what I like) so I know that joints are all good. I even had the wheel bearings, and all front end components checked out at a shop, with no warnings. But when I shift early to third, or sometimes even second, it wobbles like i have the worst warped rotors of all time. Kinda scary really. My next step is to check the motor mounts, but that is kind of a shot in the dark really. Anyone else has this issue? What was the remedy? Thanks in advance!

Pretty much what I started my thread about 2 days ago. We will see. Maybe one of us will find out. I'll let you know if I get it figured out. You say 2nd or 3rd, so say 35 mph?

My mounts appear to be good. Maybe they aren't tightened down properly. I'll have to check my rear mount too... That thing has been giving me issues.
