Default Vibration in my a$$

Hi everyone, I am new to the mustang world. I just bought a 91 LX Vert. I get a vibration when I start from a stop only while turning. Does that make sense? I feel it in the seat, so it must be coming from the back right? I have read and searched already but can't find a post with this problem. Thanks
Matt

check your mounts(motor,tranny) for flex and cracks. also pay close attention in looking for marks on the driveline from your exhaust hitting it. bad motor mounts could cause the exhaust to move enough to where it hit the muffler. my driveshaft hits my passenger side muffler, and my mounts are good.

it is only while turning, from a start with decent amount of throttle. no sounds, just feel it. I just bought the car and have notices that the trans fluid is foamy

change it. foam = water. dont just drop the pan and change filter, actually go somewhere with a flush machine and flush it. probably $100

I'm afraid to change it..... could cause total failure I have heard. can't afford a trans for atleast a month

Properly servicing your transmission is not going to cause total failure... Don't know where you've heard that.

define properly... I have heard the flush machines can knock small pieces of metal that are not causing harm where they sit can be forced into places where they could reach there full destructive potential
