I spoke to Doug at ERA and he has seen this exact problem one time. They changed transmissions and fixed the problem.

I decided to get a third opinion before doing a lot of work and drove to a friends house to take him for a ride.

With 47 miles on the trans the problem went away. The shifter exhibits little to no vibration in all gears. I put an additional 20+ miles on at many speeds with no further issues. I am baffled, but happy.

This trans did sit for a few years dry. My theory is something was stuck or rusted and when my gear lube heated up it freed up.

It seems crazy, but the problem was real.
