    Your dealership parts. You have to give them your original axles as a core, but the total comes out to be about 140

    Just run oem's. Been running oem and have 2 spares for the trails. I have yet to break one and I'm also locked up front with 35's. Probably just jinxed myself :notsure:. If you want you can do the boot slide mod as well. I didn't need to as my angles are pretty solid. As stated earlier, cheap aftermarket cv's tend to bind when you droop out your suspension.

    I appreciate all the feedback! I inquired about the OEM remans, they are on nationwide backorder. I got a price on new ones yesterday through a local toyota dealer, $585.62 per axle. Wow!

    Sometimes you can find them locally or being sold by other members.

    I did one Import Direct Axle (ORileys) and rebuilt the other with the Toyota rebuild kit... Had issues getting the rebuild one to seal, had to clean and RTV the edge for it to stop flinging grease. Everything's fine for me now (granted I've only driven 2000 miles on them both)

    Import Direct CV Boots tear too easily. I have the OME suspension with OME upper control arms, ARB bumper and winch. I had a custom driveshaft made to fix that angle several years ago.

    The import direct boots tore within a week as the rubber just rubs.

    What do I need to do to fix this angle issue?

    Is the rubber rubbing on one of your suspension components or is it just rubbing on itself? If it is just rubbing on itself, then you might want to try the boot slide mod.
