: : So I called Napa - my axles are $119.88 each and they have to be special ordered. Snotty lady who asked me all the questions that I answered when she asked what I needed.
: : "Yeah, I need L and R axles for a '93 Maxima SE 5spd w/out ABS"
: : "Okay - make please?"
: : "Uhh... Nissan."
: : "Model?"
: : "Um. Maxima. SE. 5spd"
: : "Is that a 5spd?"
: : "Yeah... No ABS"
: : "No ABS?"
: : "NO ABS!!"

: : SHEESH! She even put me on hold twice.

: : Emailed raxles.com - got an instant response from Marty with tons of info that I didn't even ask for - and prices - $119.99 each for left and right. Hmm. For the recommendation and the great service so far, I am gonna have to go with raxles.

: : Just wanted to share.

: : So - how long can I leave the torn CV boot without anything serious happening? The problem right now is time. I have to drive to LA (prolly 1000 miles when it's all done) early next month and I won't have any time to do this before then. It's either Maxima or Budget rent-a-car...
