    Your going to pay through the nose if you go OEM .
    Napa , Canadain tire , or any speacialty shop can fix you up and usually with a 1 year warranty for a fraction of the cost . Are you not interested in installing new axle boots on your original axles ?
    All I can suggest is before you install anything new is to match up the parts with the originals .Pay very close attention to where the axle seal rides on the axle shaft . Look at the spline lengths , look at the plunging depth , look at shaft diameters . Mismatched parts are common even from the dealer .Sometimes you dont catch the issue until the axle is installed and end up having to do the job again . Not trying to scare you but I have seen this many times over the years
