I had a mechanic check this out and it turned out to be broken transmission mount. since no one suggested this I would like my donation refunded

It is nice to have the beneifit of a lift and a look under the car, and yes sometimes it does take a bit of back and forth to answer ANY question, Ball joints, engine and tranny mounts are ALL possibilties, did you always take your ball and go home?
