Vibration at 55-60mph under load

Any help with this issue would be great. My 2012 civic ex vibrates in the front at around 55-60 mph when you are accelerating and the more they load, the worse it gets. I checked the CV boots and they appear fine with no tears. Is there any things I can check to see where the issue is? Thanks in advance!!!

Checked tires? Suspension? Brakes?

Tires are in good condition and balanced. In fact it has done this since before current tires. Brakes I wouldn’t think would have anything to do with this since it’s only under acceleration at said speed. Is there anything specifically in suspension I should check first? I have seen this issues discussed on the net and some people say transmission, some say bent drive axle, etc.

Tranny and motor mounts seem fine visually. Is there any one item that is most likely to cause this? Thanks for the help!

You could try swapping tires front to rear to see if the vibrating stops.
