its when im on the gas in gear. when i push the clutch in it goes away and when i hit the breaks it goes away. the wheels and tires are balanced so i cant think of nething else but the axle

could be the axles. do you have the right amount of tire pressure? also check you motor mounts for cracks.

the tires both have 30 psi in them and the mounts are fine no cuts or nething in them and there like a year old. could an axle do this? cause the passenger axle is really bad it clicks when i turn which is a tell tale sign of a bad cv joint.

i've seen plenty of axle nuts that haven't been fully tightened do similar things. if you aren't getting your new axles within the week i would check this because it can cause premature wheel bearing failure.

^^^^ what he said
check that then replace BOTH cv axles. and if it continues, just take a peek under the car and look for anything obvious.
but if it is only doing it while accelerating or pressing the gas pedal sounds like axles if you can feel it in the steering wheel
