Default transmission problem? Car shakes around 45mph

I have a 1995 GT automatic and recently when the car shifts into OD at around 45mp and cruises around 40-55mph the car will tend to hop a bit, as if the car is trying to shift or something. I had a similar situation two summers ago and had the entire transmission redone but the shuddering was horrible back then and made some serious noise. This time around, the shuddering only happens every so often, normally when the car is warm. Is this a problem with the clutch sticking, a bad sensor, any ideas? Thanks

I had a similar problem with my 1995 V6. It ended up being a broken motor mount.
