torque converter

I have a 2006 2.4 litre and have had a engine shake at acceleration !!!! After changing front axcles and doing brakes. then checking the rear bearings and replacing rear brakes. The only thing I can come up with now would be the Torque Converter !!!!!!! Any other suggestions !!!!!!!!

what speed does this happen? is it on take of from a stop or after crusing down the road on acceleration? The only time I have seen a Torque Converter cause a sudder is after the converter go's in to lock up at crusing speed.

Another thing to look at is the engine mounts, they can give you one heck of a shudder.
