will cause severe wandering.
A bad bushing on the Panhard rod (above the rear axle - it keeps the axle in position relative to the rest of the car) will cause squirrelly handling like that, too.
The shifter vibrating like that, especially when you're accelerating, indicates that you may have a bad inner driver (the cup that the inner CV [tripod] joint goes into) or that the tripod joint has started to disintegrate. Usually this is the one on the right side because the heat from the exhaust dries out the special grease in the joint.
It sounds like you have multiple problems going on at the same time.
