Ok I have a 1993 acura integra ls. When I accelerate I get a vibration. I have no clue what it is. It's not the cv axles I have checked them. I'm really stumped what it could be. It's not the motor mounts either. Could the ball joints be bad? This happens only when I accelerate on all gears it doesn't happen when I shift down or decelerate. It stops when I let off of the gas. I have checked the axles and motor mounts. I'm kinda stumped could it be the ball joints cause this to do this or perhaps differential bearings In the transmission?

Honestly, it sounds like one of the rubber mounts on a motor or trans mount is bad. The motor mounts make more sense. How did you check them? Was the engine under a load?
