When its vibrating do you see the revs floating around a little?
I had under load vibrations
Anti Shudder additive in the transmission fixed it.

As Clarky and renovator have said, front diff bushes, is where I'd start.

Especially since it happened after, heavy beach work, those front diff bushes cop a lot of punishment.

I reckon they need checking on a regular basis anyway, the front and top bush really aren't up to the task. IMO

I didn't do a lot of 4x4 work with the Commander, but the mounts needed changing at about 120k anyway.
