Default Rumble During Acceleration, Ideas?

I recently tore my RF Boot and had my axle assembly replaced. When I got the car back though I felt like it rumbled/shakes/etc... as I accelerated, mostly between 2nd and 3rd gear. It could be me but it seems like the feeling originates from the right front side of the car and no where else. The car does not do this continuously just as I accelerate.

The suggestions I have received from my mechanic (who replaced my axle) are bent rims, which could need to be balanced and spun but I'm not sold on the idea.

Does anyone have other suggestions or ideas to what could be causing my issue.

Thank you.

I had CV axle go bad and it had the same symptoms. Maybe they gave you a bad axle if it is on the same side. If it did not vibrate before fixing I would bet my money it is the replacement axle.
