there have been quite a few threads regarding shakings lately... they're all regarding either axles, bushings, etc...

My left side axle blew the boot off of the CV joint, and spewed grease all over the underside of the car. Prior to it doing this, it would have a strong vibration under acceleration, especially while under a load. Cruising on the freeway was the worst. I installed a new axle, and the problem was gone.

New axles didn't fix it for me, until I fixed the broken rear mount that was allowing the inner joints on the new axles to wear and cause vibration during acceleration.

The bearing in your intermediate shaft could have gone bad also. Grab a hold of your inner cv joint and move it up down to check it. If you notice any play, replace the bearing/intermediate shaft assembly.
