the axles are about $75 ea for the rebuilt ones...have boots, grease and clampin' seal all together for that price...bit of labor to do the job...and some know how in seating the C-clip~ but really there's nothing a person can do to help them other than replace the whole axle w/cv joints and boots already installed on that~
