Movement from differential? Or rear shakles?

Good afternoon,

Recently bought a 2012 Tacoma v6 with 4wd. The truck has 135k on it. I've notice a little movement from stop and go. Feels kind of in the front but also rear? Like a little bump from stop and go. Shifting is great and normal. Nothing else to really note. Was curious if someone else had this issues before. The front bushings for the diff look okay. Same with the rear shakles.

Thanks for your help!
 
Gotcha, would it be best to start with the front differential bushings? Or what would be a more common problem would you think?
 
Start with the suspension. Its the most likely wear area. Front and rear.

My '06 feels like wheel hop or a shudder from the rear when coming off a stop. Had it checked. All is tight and in good nick. Last suspect is the crappy tires.

Begin with a thorough inspection of the suspension by a professional.
 
Find a reputable front end, and general suspension shop to go through it, and give you an estimate, unless you're able to do all the work yourself. I've found Firestone, and Midas pretty darn good here, when they serviced our shop trucks, but then again so are a few other independent shops.
