Post CV Joints- Vibration at Steering Wheel ???

I have a 'clunking ' noise that gets faster with acceleration which sounds like a CV joint, but at the same time I get a vibration in my Steering wheel. Does this sound like a CV?? I jacked up the car and checked the front wheels. All looked and felt right there. Any sugesstions? I will be pulling the CV on drivers side to check. The PO had changed all 4 CV's 35,000 ago.

4 cv's are all in the rear. 1 on each side of the 1/2 shaft. so, 2 per shaft.

Start with checking front tire balance for a vibration in the steering wheel. I think its just a coincidence that the CV's are bad too.

SOunds like two different problems, but check to see if any of your CV joint bolts are backing out...
