97 subaru legacy outback 2.5 vibration only at idle in gear

97 subaru legacy outback 2.5 DOHC.There is a vibration only idle in gear (Automatic) if I put it in neutral the vibration goes away and sometimes when you depress the break pedal twice it vibrates alot less . This is a fully rebuilt (original) engine new crank ,rods ,pistons + much more with less than 10 k. but the funny thing is it did the same before being rebuilt. Otherwise it runs great , never stalls and get 24mpg on hwy. Any ideas? Some Tech tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I would suspect a mount. Either motor or trans. Also check lateral mount on top of motor to firewall. Good luck and have a great day.

Is a rear diff from a 1997 subaru legacy wagen with a 2.2l inter changeable with a 1997 subaru legacy outback with a 2.5l ?

the only way you can do this is if you can identify the gear ratios from both cars with the transmission codes found on the strut tower plate.
see this list to check for matches, read it carefully its a ton of info

I have a 97 Suburu Legacy Outback, AWD.... 204,000... I am starting to get what sounds like front right vibration when taking off and a constant ticking sound, it isn't motor related because when idle,...

This is the 1/2 shaft spline. Also called a CV joint.
it is recommended to change both front shafts at the same time.
