I have began to notice, upon acceleration, significant movement in the transfer case shift lever. Back many years ago when I was young and agile enough to crawl around underneath vehicles, that movement in any transmission lever, accelarator peddle, etc... could be a significant diagnostic for a loose or worn out motor mount. Is this a common problem for this year and make? I have a little over 113K miles on the truck and it is a 5.4. Is there a way to confirm whether or not it's a mount issue short of taking to a dealer?
At least my boat and truck are paid for, woo hoo!

Have you tried opening the hood and have someone rev the engine while you look for any movement?

Thanks for the response. Yes I have but not much movement at least not like the shift lever. maybe a transfer case mount?

I have an 03 and thought I was having an issue like that. When accelerating from 35-40 ish it felt like it was slipping.... Turned out to be a bad COP (coil over plug).
A much easier fix.
