Gearshift level motion change

On my 98 9kT, the stickshift has suddenly begun to show significant motion forward and aft as the power decreases and increases. This is quite pronounced in 1st and 2nd, far less so in 3rd and 4th, almost imperceptible in 5th. In bottom gear, it's gone to about 1-3/4" from negligible over the weekend.
Tried a board search, maybe used the wrong query words, but my question is what's going on? Car has 118k on the clock, had the motor and trans mounts replaced at 90k-ish. I use the turbo, but don't jump on it in the lower gears (tires are expensive enough without turning them into smoke.) And I have a definite aversion to replacing a trans, so I'm anxious about this symptom.
Help on this anybody? TIA
