Front axel question

so i need new front axels on my 04 wrx
I have been told most refurbs are garbage and i cant seem to find a pair of good used ones.
where should i buy from?

 

stock power = stock axle.
You get what you pay for.

 

I have used autozone with no problems.

 

Check with Minnetonka subaru. I believe you can get rebuilt stock axles through them. And you can use your club discount.

 

A-1 Cardone ranufactured axles are pretty good, this is the only brand I would use other than nee oem, have had no problems with these on a stock or lightly modified car.

 

Are they the same as an 02 WRX? I have one available.

 

I have had no issues with NAPA rebuilds.

 

I've had issues with remans from orielly. 2 bad remans in a year.

 

Are the boots just torn? You can get new boots, clamps and grease from subaru. We reboot them all the time

 

I just did a re-boot last night, not hard at all. 20$ fix for me, what would you guys charge for this?

 

Right around $300 parts and labor

 

the grind a bit when its realllly cold and make sharp turns

 

just to double check
i have a male axle and a female transmission

 

Looks like there is a spring pin in there, so female axle inner male outer. Would be the same as an 2002

 

I might have some used 02 axles in my garage or shed. Pm if interested

 

No, that is backwards.

Correct.

I have used 02 axles sitting around as well.
