Please make a video of you doing that and upload it to youtube.

Ok. Revved to the 1500 range and see very noticeable movemenf in drive/reverse.

Assuming then that front and rear mounts are bad and my electronic ones have been disconnected.

As I read threads i should buy the manual trans version? If I just buy anchor MT versions 8866 & 9532 then they fit correctly with a clean swap? Not interested in high end bushings or pressing out. Just want to fix it.

I'm automatic, I'm running brand new OEM MT front and rear mounts and I absolutely love them. You will notice a profound difference in off the line acceleration and throttle response with new mounts/. Strong work with your testing. Just goosing it is all you need to make a definitive diagnosis, along with visual inspection. Also, they are easy as cake to replace. You need to spend some time underneath the car. Your brain will start figuring things out once it knows what it's looking at.
