Default would a bad transfer case mount lead to shaking at 55mph?

the mount that goes on the crossmember. i can get up under my jeep and shake it a pretty good amount.. i was thinking that might be he cause.. if i have the throttle hammered it wont shake but as soon as i let off it shakes sooo bad... and it would only do it at 55+. also slowing down i get a bad shake also until i get below 55. but i think thats just warped rotors because it actually shakes through the wheel when slowing.. when im going over 55 it doesnt shake at the wheel.

Replace the mount, will eliminate the possibility. It can only make it better.

If it is lose or broken any problem with you rotors, drive shaft, etc. will be multiplied.

Use a block of wood and a jack to lift the case slightly. Remove bolts replace mount, done. Not hard at all. Not sure but the mount should be less than 100. You could even find one at a jy, just check it real good for wear and cracks.
