front shaking

Having a problem with the front end shaking severely. It is shaking more so when accelerating and turning to the right. Thinking it is a bad cv axel. My question. Is it the upweighted wheel that shakes more when it is bad?

No real way to isolate what side without disassembling the axles and inspecting for wear. Even then you may not see anything. If you suspect a axle problem, best bet it to replace them both, especially if there are a lot of miles on the car.

I assume you checked ball joints, tie rods, ect...
