You are better of buying them from a local parts store.You also get a warranty.I bought my half shaft about 4 months ago for $75, with core exchange at murrays.If you get them of ebay you pay $129.99 plus $35 s+h.

Do you have limited slip? The auction says LSD only.

Go To AUTOZONE i bought mine there for around 75 bucks and also came with a lifetime warranty. If i remeber correctly the ebay guy selling those cv axles only has a 1 year warrranty or something like that. Plus shipping kills the cost. just my couple of cents.

im pretty sure it is each, so 79.99 x 2 is like 160 bux, plus if i remember correctly they wanted a 50 dollar core charge for each at pepboys so that is like 260 bux plus tax. i figure if i get these on ebay it would be like 170 and when i get my old shafts back my mechanic said he would give me 60 bux for the pair so he can go get them remanufactured and turn them around and sell them. well if autozone has lifetime warranty i might just go with them.

Terran:
when i emailed the seller i asked him bout the LSD thing also. if i remember correctly i dont think there are any automatic maximas which came with LSD, im not sure 5 speed tranny's come with LSD either with exception to some canada maximas. when i get a response to his email i hope he clairifies this.

well overall im assuming you guys would recomend that i go to a local autozone to get the axles, is there no one who has dealt with this company or know if these are good axles. it says they are not re-manufactured and are brand new, and they also say they supply these axles to autozone, ima go check out some autozone places thursday to see what brand they are.

Yeah US maxima's didn't have LSD (unless you did the swap) so these particular one's won't fit your car.

How hard is it to install an axle, I have a ripped cv boot, is it easier to replace whole axle or just the cv boot. I have replaced struts before, and done manifold work, could I do the axle replacement?
