Acceleration vibrations, FIXED! - CV drive axles. Options

[samir0189]

Quite recently I've have this vibration, where the entire car shakes once I'm doing greater than 50+mph in gears 3-5(duh), ONLY during acceleration. Its really weird. I intend to get my wheel balances checked soon, although I have my doubts as this being the shaking stops if i coast/brake at the same speeds. There are no issues with turning etc, as I try not to at 70mph.

Also the problem sometimes disappears for short periods of time, and just that, the vibrating stops! Very odd.

I have had my motor mounts changed recently, for the record. Any suggestions?

I had the wheels balanced today. the problem still remains, although the issue has been reduced to 50-75mph. anything over 75 and its smooth like it should be. I watched them balance the wheels to be sure, and everything "zeroed" out correctly. I'm kinda hoping its not the transmission, however i'll look into finding a place that does that sort of thing.

It may be a bit of a long shot, but, a few weeks ago, perhaps around the time this issue has started, I went over a railroad track that wasn't very smooth at all at a kinda high speed, it was my first time down that road, so i didnt know. Do you think it could maybe be a busted strut? Ive had some kind of an oil leak recently too, are those oil filled?
