Got the used $40 cv axle I ordered off of ebay, to test my theory. I'm gonna swap this out for the one in my X now, to see if it resolves the acceleration vibration. The one in my X has got some play in the cv joint, the used one I bought doesn't. If it does resolve it, I'll drive it for awhile to see if it reappears, because a separate issue (transfer case)? Once I get it all figured out, I'll get some new oem axles, once I know they won't get ruined by an under-lying issue...
