I HAVE A 1996 VOLKSWAGEN PASSAT 2.8L WITH A VIBRATION AT THE FRONT RIGHT(PASS) SIDE TIRE AT A SPEED OF 25+ MPH, WITH A SLIGHT PULL TO THE RIGHT. I WAS THINKING MAYBE IT IS THE CV AXLE THAT'S CAUSING THIS PROBLEM OR THE STRUTS. TIRES ARE NEW TWO YEAR OLD ALIGNMENT. APPRECIATE YOUR ADVICE.

Yes it could be an axle but it could be a hub bearing too. It also could be the alignment as well, or a tire rod end. I would start having the alignment checked once a year to every two years as roads are not all smooth there are imperfections and at highway speeds they will work on the front end parts. So what I would do is do a front end shake down. Check the axle and the hub bearing and the tire rod ends. If you need any more help just let me know. Thanks for you support.
