When traveling on the highway at about 70mph and above it seems like the cv axles are shifting slightly and its making me nervous. I replaced both of them about a year ago. Could I have been sent the wrong ones or could the issue be something else? Its definetly not the wheel bearings though.

That would be difficult to diagnose online. Aside from CV itself and installation, you may have a problem with suspension, steering or alignment. The conditions of your tires could also be a factor. It would be better to take it to a trusted shop for a thorough inspection and testing.
