vibration during acceleration is usually a sign of bad cv joints

if its durring acceleration- cv joint
if its durring crusing- wheels bent, bad balance, tire seperation
if its durring braking- you most likley have warped rotors

please correct me if im wrong

More likely, luck of the draw. I got a bad axle from NAPA the first time and the second was perfect.

To the original poster, I agree... most likely a bad CV joint.
