I've heard good reports from others too.
Mine are from CVJ in Denver, they're good. Results of axles from local suppliers selling rebuilds of unknown heritage have been mixed.

One thing CVJ told me is that the clicking does not mean imminent death. You can drive for thousands of miles with bad axles before replacing them (I did – wasn't my idea but I was away from home). So don't panic, take your time. Lots of threads here on that subject.
