Should both Halfshafts be replaced at once? V70-XC70 1998

I just replaced my drivers side halfshaft and bearing assembly because the old one sheared off at the nut. Anyway, I was wondering if I should replace both sides halfshafts and bearing assemblies. The Car has 85K on it now.

Just after I replaced the halfshaft, I noticed that when I accelerate from a slow speed up to highway speed, I get a wobble, that feels like the tranny is transferring power from one side of the car to the other around 10 times a second. Thinking it was the alignment, I just had it done, but the wobble is still there. Could it be because I only replaced one halfshaft instead of both at once?
