1 near the top of the motor on the passenger side (torque-axis mount), between the cam cover and the coolant overflow tank
1 on the bottom of the motor on the passenger side, directly under the crankshaft pulley
1 on the driver's side on top and forward of the transmission, directly under the battery tray.
1 under the transmission, between it and the cradle.

Excessive vibration is most often caused by the torque-axis mount going shot. If you have a floor jack and a Haynes/Chilton manual, you can change any of these in a half-hour or less.
