i have a 1994 Fleetwood Flair class A 22ft, I'm noticing a slight vibration when accelerating when up to speed it seems fine, could it be transmission or u joints, I only has 56000 miles but a lot of years.would appreciate some ideas.........Thanks

That can be a issue that causes vibration, but mounts are unlikely to break while parked. With helper EZ to check. 1 hold brake while apply power, forward then reverse. If mount is broke, can see engine moves.

What chassis is your Flair on Chev or Ford> I would check the distributor mechanical advance. Plug wires could be breaking down. Cylinders 7 and 8 on Chev 7.4 can be problematic.
I have had issues with a truck that was parked for months, then put back in service. Just as soon as stop, hit driveline with greasegun. And a weak wire or plug often (Coil pack on modern engine?) is first noticed as miss under load.

silverado and I either think alike or have had the same problems.
Home was where I park it. but alas the. 2005 Damon Intruder 377 Alas declared a total loss after a semi "nicked" it. Still have the radios Kenwood TS-2000, ICOM ID-5100, ID-51A+2, ID-880 REF030C most times
Sounds like U joints. Also consider loose bolt on transmission or engine supports, I might find someone with a pit and have them check and tighten just to be sure.
