# Grr so I FINALLY got my passenger side axle...

Posted by James (VE 5spd ) on September 26, 2003 at 21:59:29: took me 2 weeks to get it out... took me another 2 weeks to get the new one. O'Reily's and Autozone had them in their computer system but were listed as 'unavailable'. So Pepboys it is. They naturally dont stock any...have to order it. I end up waiting over a week for it. Week and a half goes by so I'm up there like wtf where's my axle. Then they finally tell me "someone ordered it from the wrong place and we'll have to order it again". I'm like f*ck that so I go to the non-ghetto English speaking PepBoys in the suburb of Mesquite. I paid $30 extra for overnight shipping on Wednesday. Then of course it's NOT there yesterday....finally was there today. Of course they wont give me a refund on the shipping because it's UPS's fault. So, I pay $80 for the axle + $30 for the shipping and now it's at over a hundred bucks. Wow I could've spent 10 dollars more, saved myself a TON of hassle, and just had a shop done it. GRRR aint that fun. Hmm now a question....the new axle (passenger side) doesnt have that little cap on the axle shaft that sits against the seal on the transmisson. Does that not make any difference? Replys: They hardly ever do. --> Matt (93SE) 22:04:24 9/26/2003 (7) Crap...

James (VE 5spd ) 22:26:59 9/26/2003 (4) on the left end of fig 15, there's a tiny one. that one's okay to be missing. --> Matt (93SE) 22:31:15 9/26/2003 (3) I just checked....it definitely has the one on the wheel end... James (VE 5spd ) 22:54:36 9/26/2003 (2) The outer one (that you have) is definitely needed. the inner one should be there to help the seal last longer, but it's okay. --> Matt (93SE) 10:33:57 9/27/2003 (0) Aren't both of those considered dust shields MIKE (93VE) 05:11:56 9/27/2003 (0)
