For those of you experiencing vibration when you're stopped at a light I suggest you look at your transmission mount. I just replaced mine this morning and now the vibration is gone. Just a little FYI for everyone.

I bought mine at rockauto.com for like $66 with shipping. It's better than spending $102 at AutoZone or any of the local parts stores.

According to my FSM for my 96:
The through bolts should be 48 ft/lbs
The nuts that hold the bracket of the motor mount should be 30 ft/lbs
