transmission that bounces

hey..
ive had my jeep for about 2 years, when i first bought it it had 12k miles and it was 2 yrs old. 6cyl, 5 spd. Carfax on it was clean, but i've noticed something weird that i thought might not be normal.

Whenever i go over a speed bump, or any bump thats major like that, as soon as i start accelerating, the acceleration "bounces" with the car's shakes from the bump. Its like maybe the tranny is movin in and out from the engine, and its only catchin when the frame isnt moving.

My friend said maybe motor mounts are missing, because i really dont kno what the previous owner did. Any ideas? also, how would i check to see if its the engine or the tranny thats bouncing?
