strange vibration

hey all, for the past few weeks my 2.2 5spd has been having some odd vibrations. The vibration appears to be coming from the right side of the car and it only happens at lower rpm's when the engine is bogging down, especially in 5th gear around 2000 and 2500 rpms, and if im sitting in neutral and rev the motor, it makes the sound when the rpms are coming back down around 1500-2000 rpm range. I described it to a friend and he initially told me to check my tranny mounts, i haven't been able to do that yet but i figured i'd say something on here to see if anyone else is having this issue. Any help/suggestions are appreciated.....

mods? if you have an exhaust or any aftermarket parts that can dangle and hit something etc. check those.

no i haven't, i got some time tonight so i'll prolly take a peek under there and make sure no brackets or anything were broken. I was in an accident with it before and it broke the mounting brackets on the muffler so its entirely possible
