Possibly axles or hub bearing. My hub bearing was so bad that you could shake the wheels like crazy when it was in the air.

I agree, might be the axles. Mine vibrated only when accelerating too. Changed the axle and all is good. Check if the boot is ripped and if it has any grease inside.

When the wheel bearing is bad doesn't it make a noise? Like a grinding noise? I'm leaning towards the axle.

It could be, I remember a thread where someone thought it was one side but it was the other that was bad. Does it make a clicking sound when you turn?

Yea usually when the wheel bearing is bad your able to shake it back and forth without the tie-rods moving if its the ball joints then you'll be able to shake it up and down.....
but my $20 bet says its the C.V. axle cause I've had this issue twice in cars I brought...Load from the tranny= stress on bad axles = shakes like a bad leg trying to walk
