Have you checked all the UJ's on all 3 props for play and the gearbox, engine, and Tbox mounts?

when my transfer box mounts went the selector stick vibrated alot in 1st and 2nd. I would imagine if the g-box mounts and engine mounts were worn the gear stick would vibrate.
How violent is the vibration.

)

in the DIY page there are two methods!
ONE
TWO
If its not your daily drive take the nackered joint off and take it to the motorfactros, there are several different types for the SJ, and motorfactors always have the wrong one listed!
best of luck!
