4th Gear Shimmy

My 2003 F350 diesel 6.0 liter gives me a shimmy when it goes into 4th gear (right at 45-50 mph). When the engine is cold it feels like either the engine or the transmission is causing a bucking/jerking sensation at the low end of the 4th gear. When I step down harder on the throttle, the turbo kicks in and all is fine.

Once the engine is warm the shimmy is less noticeable, but still present.

Any ideas?
