Is it really worth it to buy the $600 oem axle when bavauto and ecs sell aftermarkets for $100-$300? I can't decide what to do. take the risk and go cheaper or peace of mind by overpaying for oem i never seen this large of a price difference between aftermarkets and oems on any other parts i've looked at.

My previous post should have said reman axle from Cardone at NAPA, not Dorman. Left front $53.... I was very impressed with the quality and as I understand it the reman Cardone is OEM or was OEM until they overhauled it. I read how some aftermarket may cause some vibration but I put my $53 unit in and cannot tell any difference AT ALL still drives like new after 6 years.

I got my replacement boot, lifetime warranty for $12 shipped...gotta love eBay! Its been about a year and I just noticed the other side has failed, thankfully I caught it soon. Too bad replacing the boot is a bitch, but it far cheaper than the whole arm.

$150 is a bit much to "save time". For some reason my drivers side CV joint REFUSED to seperate from the spindle, so I had to remove the whole assembly, remove a good boot and slide the new boot up to the torn on, then replace the what was good boot that I had to remove. Needless to say...headache. Hopefully the passenger side doesn't fight me as much.
