Default virbration in car need help to diagnose!! car vibration dont know whats the problem!!!

i found out that i had blown axle boots on both axles. i decided to replace the whole axle instead of getting the boot replaced. first i got some autozone remanufactured axles and then right after the install, everytime i step on the gas pedal in 2nd and 3rd gear accelerating from 2k-3.2k rpm, my whole car begins to vibrate. i thought it was a defected axle so i got a free replacement and still the same thing happends. i started to think that it might be because my car is dumped so i raised my car about 1.5 inch. so right now, it sits at a 1 finger gap all around. so after i raised it, the vibration just continued. i decided to take it to a shop so that they may replace new axles for me instead of an autozone remanufactured ones. once those were installed, the vibration toned down a little but after about a day, the vibration started to come back. i then installed some ES motormount inserts. then replaced the lower ball joints thinking that those migth be the problem. still....... the vibration continues. my car is aligned and all the wheels are balanced. there are no flatspots and the tires have about 95% tread left. i dont know what the problem is. can anybody help me diagnose this problem. any feedback would be great. thanks for reading!

well i installed my Energy Suspension Motor mount inserts because i thought that was the problem. i was told that it should only vibrate only from a stop. the shop i took it to sold me new aftermarket axles but i still dont know why these axles are worse then my axles i started out with first. thanks for feedback. does anyone know another reason why this is occuring? i was told that it might be my bearings but the mechanic said my bearings are still good.

Sounds like axles to me. i replaced my axles with advance auto ones and they vibrated realy bad and the driver side broke a day later. bought some oem ones and they work perfect.
