front end shimming

I have 2001 Pontiac Montana Van 3.4 6 cylinder and has about 108,000 miles. I have recently replaced the driver side axle and passenger side wheelbearing. Even before replacing those two items at about 40 mph my front end starts to shake and stops somewhere after you pass 50 mph. It only shakes when you are accelerating and never does it when braking. I just had new tires put on and balanced.

If you're only experiencing the problem under acceleration, that indicates a problem in either the inner c/v joint or the differential.A trained tech would have to drive it to know the difference.
