Hi jvlogan65 and welcome to FTE 
Have you tried anything to fix it yet?
Is it a low or high frequency vibration?
Tires balanced ok?
U-joints ok?
If you do a search here you'll probably find some posts on the same problem.
I dont have newer TSB's here but apparently Ford came out with some rear bumper weights to cure a vibration but I dont know the particulars.

I have new tires and the balance is good. The upper ball joints had too much movement so I replaced those. The rotors are good and the u-joints are tight. The only thing that seemed to be loose was the transmission mount. I applied up and down movement at the mount area and noticed some movement, maybe 1/16" is all. Do you know if the trans. mount should have any movement?
