Default shifter bobs up and down

When I'm driving around and i go over a rough spot or uneven surface I see that my shifter goes bobs up and down, not too much but enough to get me pissed sometimes. Is this normal or do I need to check out my tranny mounts or anything under the car?

Any info would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

That's normal, to a certain extent. You can check your tranny mount, but I'm sure it's just normal travel.

You have a 98. I replaced mine with a poly one, it was a piece of cake. When I took out the stocker, it was practically torn in half.

Solved the problem.

Check out the transmission and motor mounts, replace them with Poly mounts of they are worn or broken.
