Vibration on Accel Turning right?

So every since I did the cam I have noticed I have this weird shimmy vibration when I am turning right and accelerating. Have tried to replicate issue going left and doesn't do it. Tried to accelerate on freeway this weekend on a slight right hand turn and the vibration was horrible. Normal driving never notice it. So far have checked the lower motor mounts right side wheel bearing and lug nuts on that side. Anyone have any other thoughts? Also jacked it up and tugged on cv shaft and it feels tight also rotated wheel turning all the way to the right doesn't seem to be binding or anything
 


I'd toss in a new cv axle personally.

Just because it's tight and no movement by hand doesnt mean that it's not bad inside the cup.

I mean it's only 70-80 bucks and 1 hour of your time.
 
I think it's the tie rod end checked the wheel at 3 and 9 and there is some movement and it's worse if I turn it to the right...also can see a little movement at ball joint

If the tie rod end has any slop at all though wont that be felt when its under a load? Checked the drivers side and its tight no movement detected...as said before only does it turning to the right and under decent amount of acceleration
 


Its a cv axle..mine did same thing when they were going out..slapped in some autozone ones since they are lifetime warranty, took care of vibration right away..mine.felt tight when.I checked them as well and I.thiight no way it could be axles..but once I finally replaced them it was money...both axles shipped with 20percent off coupon they had was under 100bucks.

Nope, no.noisr and axles.looked perfect..hell when I tool them.off I would have thought they were new looking and didnt feel loose...buddy had same issue as well..turned to right and gave gas it would shake and vibrate..switched.out his axles and fixed it as well. Are you lowered?

Didnt you just put voltlands on? Funny thing is mine started about a month after I lowered..it changes the geometry of the axles plus mine had like 170k on them so once lowering, they didnt like it..due to.the fact it happens when you turn, I would suspect the axle.

Been lowered for a couple years...I have the motor mount spacers so never had any vibration issues until I did the cam swap and had the right side tore apart
 
Changed the passenger cv and seems to have fixed 80% or so of my vibration....prob end up doing the other one also
