Check the motor mounts and trans mount and the linkage adjustment

My first thoughts also...

It's probably not the transmission.
It's the twisting of the drivetrain that is probably affecting the linkage....
Back in the day, we used to chain down the driver's side of the engine in order to keep from breaking the driver's side motor mount. I've never had a passenger side mount break but, have replaced transmission mounts more than once....
