Bad Axle?
Ok, it's getting worse.. I put in a new CV half shaft about 2 months ago,
and now anytime I am accelerating, the whole front end vibrates. BEFORE
I put it in, all I heard was clicking... no vibrations..
Now, I read that straightline vibration is not caused by a bad outer joint, but a
bad inner joint. If this is the case, is it the inner CV joint of the half shaft?
Could it be the rod/bearing which goes to the transmission box?
I've lost around 40 miles per tank in the last few tanks of gas I got, and I'm
wondering what's causing it!

My old Integra had a bad CV joint that made the entire front end shake when I accelerated. Jack the car up and see if you can shake the CV joint with your hand. I could shake mine by hand. Mine was caused by hitting a pot hole also on the interstate when they were doing construction.
