Default 04 freelander slight vibration when under load

my o4 freelander has a slight vibration when you give it gas sometimes. got the tires balanced today and it took out a lot of the issue, but is still noticable. tire shop recommended wheel alignment due to how tires are wearing. but im also wondering if it could be in the driveline as it happens only when under load. help hints appreciated, thanks!

Front axle CV joints tend to wear out and cause this. Generally the RH front, as it is so close to the exhaust.
