You might have broken a mount as you say but driveshaft and tires can produce problems under load and be OK rolling so your story does not rule them out. And in my experience they are more likely trouble sources | ||

You may want to check to see if there is snow packed inside your wheels. I have had this same problem and found that the snow gets packed inside the wheels and causes an imbalance. The vibration will go away when the snow melts, or you remove it from inside your wheels. If its not this problem, you may want to check to see if you have a warped brake rotor. Joey | ||
