    essentially the same thing.. nothing compares to the stock Toyota CV's, they are strong and they have lots of articulation for travel. all the other reman or aftermarket CV's don't have the same degree of articulation in the CV joint as the OEM version and will bind a lot sooner and eventually break on you. plus the materials and workmanship is less quality then the standard Toyota OEM CV's

    The auto zone ones do have lifetime warranty :D mine will be going in in about a week or so. Then I plan on testing them out thoroughly! I'll report back.

    Its a fair price but why not get a brand new Camburg kit for another $160? Then your limit straps, bushings, etc are all brand new

    Yes that is high but you are also paying them labor to assemble the axles too. Honestly doesnt really make sense to have a fabrication shop do mechanical work though, just assemble them yourself from oem like suggested above
