Default Front passenger side viberation and hard pull to the right.

I changed out my axel last night and it felt perfectly fine all last night and all morning. Then on my way to work I started getting a viberation and it began pulling to the right. Does this just sound like maybe it is just alignment issues.

It could be an alignment problem, but I don't know. My car pulled to the right cause I dropped my car. So yea...I have no clue, but it could be an alignment.

We've installed axles that were already defective and they caused vibration under acceleration and torque steer.

Sounds like you might have gotten a bad inner joint.

I was kind of thinking this because last night when I was going to put the axel in it was hard as hell to get the axel to flex at the end.

could be a sezied caliper, thats causes smoke, if the brake pad was constantly rubbing on the disc.
Any smell? and was your rim/lug nuts/hub ROASTING HOT ?

Just a thought but check your control arms to see if they are bent and causing your suspension to touch or rub.
