70 Challenger: steering wheel has a mild vibration only at idle in D at a stop. Driving, all is smooth no matter the speed. If I have my hand on the wheel at a stop, I can feel the vibration. If I let go of the wheel at idle in D, the wheel vibrates. What should I look for? No knocks, no noises. Engine mounts, loose steering unit? Do I need a rubber insulator on the steering column?
Thanks!

They don't hit the steering linkage but the passenger side header is close to the torsion bar. I just put the car up on jack stands today for the winter which gives me some more room under the car to check the clearances. I will double check the steering linkage clearance. Thanks

a helper in the car with it idling in drive & brake on. You under the car & see what you see (vibration/touching)
