hi getting vibration on acceleration not sure if it is driveshafts or lower wishbones any one any idea how to test either.
thanks
 
Neither of these normally cause a vibration upon acceleration, but a crank pulley may if it is dual mass (metal centre & pulley section with a rubber sandwich) and wearing or has been removed & replaced slightly out of centre.

Let the engine idle and see if you can spot a slight wobble. If not, turn it with a socket & ratchet and see if one point is closer to the chassis leg.

I've seen these replaced wrong and it creates a strange vibration.

You may also want to see if this is causing your squeal ;)
