Major vibration during accelerating and going up grades. I have replaced left side inner and outer tie rods and passenger side wheel bearing. Vibration feels realy bad on passenger side. Could this be a cv axle? I'm not familiar on how to check cv axles. Thanks for any help. 2003 monte carlo ss

Yes, it could be a cv joint. Go to an area with a lot of room. Turn the steering all the way left and lightly accelerate. Do the same turning right. Are there any clicking sounds?

Also, have you checked motor and trans mounts? By chance is the engine misfiring?
