Default Drivetrain Buckling?

It seems sometimes when i shift i can feel the whole drivetrain buckle, think it could be a loose mount or something? its not terrible but its noticable

also just found out i have about 4 leaking gaskets (Intake, oil pain, rear end/pumkpin, and rear main seal)

most likely trans mount.

if its a street car, just get a poly mount. energy suspension is sold at most autozones. PN 3.1108 (its a universal GM mount, wont cross ref to 4th gen f-body... dont use the metal plate that comes with it).

if you go to the track, you shouldn't get a poly mount unless you also do poly motor mounts, as you can break bellhousings if your motor turns to much and your trans stays put.
