usually it's a broken CV.. The inner CV shaft has 3 posts that have bearings on them.. If you beat the hell out of your car, sometimes these posts break off leaving 2 that are un balanced to take the torque.. This creates a vibration..

Bent wheels,

MAYBE a bad torque mount, but highly unlikely..

Is it a low speed vibration (like a wheel?) or a high speed vibration (Like the engine)??

new axles. low speed. usually the first three gears. wheels are not bent. vibration can be felt through the steering wheel

Did you buy brand new axles or brand new remanufactured axles? How are your tie rods? Motor mounts? Tire pressure and wheel balance?

no...there is only ONE "suspension" component that will shake under "accel." weak struts.

as for shaken under accel.. only causes i can think off would be ...

cv axle(s)
slipped belt in tire
weak struts

If the problem never accured until you got the new axles then I'm positive it's the axles. Only problem is which side haha. You can rule out tires if the problem is not there during cruise. Vibration under acc or decc is almost always drivetrain related.

yes i did...do you know what setup your running?

lets see... 94 EG with teg motor.

that leaves two options...either civic axles or integra axles. granted i dont think civic axles will even fit but i do recall one integra axle for passenger side not having an intermediate section. you would want an intermediate section so i was just trying to clarify the EXACT setup and year make and model of what frikken axle you are running...

is this question to hard to ask? What frikken axle setup you running? geez
