Default Need Help fast Bought Car today with loose axle.

Was driving down the road today about 10 mins after I bought the car and the car started shaking over 40 MPH. Got home and looked everything down make sure lug nuts were tight and everything. Put my hand down the passenger side where the intake is and grabbed onto the axle. It is a little loose how do I fix this. It is Christmas Eve and I have stuff I gotta do. Any help guys? Thanks alot I appreciate it.

check the axle nut.

shaking during accelaration are usually caused by the axle. usually noticable around 10+mph.

shaking after 40+ mph, i believe it has to do with your wheels/tires.

get the wheels balance and get an alignment.

the axle itself suppose to wiggle since it does have joints.

let me get this straight. it only vibrates around 40 mph or 40+ mph?
