Anniversary Edition passenger CV Axle

Search didn't give me what I need. I've read the engine and trans in the AE cars is different, like from an I30 I believe with the limited slip.

When my buddy, who is a commercial parts manager at Autozone, looks up the passenger CV axle for an 01 AE Max it says not available. Will a passenger CV axle for a stock Max, or I30 work. I need this done ASAP so any help on getting the correct part is insanely appreciated.

AE transmissions are identical to I30 and/or 4th Gen canadian VLSD transmissions. These all use the same passenger side axle as the regular 5 speeds. So you will be fine.

The axle that is different is the driver side axle. That needs to be specific to a VLSD transmission.

Update... axle is still in the car. Sounds kind of poppy sometimes when I first start driving the car, then the noise generally goes away. I'd say it works.
