Vibration on front end

Hello all, I searched a bunch of threads looking for any info on 93 front end problems . Just did not see anything resembling my problem. I get a nasty vibration on the drivers side front at acceleration and just gets worse the faster it goes. The brakes look good and the tire has no play in it sideways or in/out.The drive shaft may have a bit of wobble in it (I dont know what is normal). Could I have a bad bearing in there because the wheele gets very hot when I'm done driving. Any help figuring this one out would be great

It can also be a warped tire, or bent rim. Also check to see if your calipers are stuck. Those are some possibilities

Most wheels get hot because of friction or under inflated tires. Is only the driver tire hot?

Unfortunately I don't know where the bearing sits so I can't help you there.

if you know its not your cv axle or tires, it might be motor mounts. i recently replaced my mounts and everything is better.
