I know I need to open it up and see how much wear there is on the inside and outside joints - on both left and right sides. But with 188K on the car, wouldn't it be wise to replace both sides - CV joints and all? if one side is going the other can't be far behind. Also, what would be the ballpark figure to do the work?

Thanks,

I doubt your outer joints are worn out. They almost never do.

The inner joints will create a vibration on acceleration or deceleration, as they start to pit.

You may have a wheel bearing or tire cupping issue. I would inspect those things.
