The clunk when shifting will pretty much go away after the car has warmed up, but it still clunks a little but only when shifting from park to reverse or drive. On the road it shifts quietly.

That sounds more like a transmission problem to me - but let's focus on the vibration first! Who knows may be that problem will be fixed after the vibration trouble is solved.
