Default Vibration in tranny tunnel on bumps?

Greetings,
Over the last few weeks, my 6sp rubi has developed a "shimmy" noise from the shifter area when I hit a good size bump, regardless of what speed I am going. It sounds like the shift lever vibrating back and forth (same frequency) but I have stabilized the lever in my hand, and still get the vibration noise from the tranny tunnel area. Any idea what this could be?

Same here. I think it is just the build quality.

My Superduty has always done the vibrate thing. Just a 4x4 thing?
