i'm lucky in that I have a rebuilder in town who's been doing it since day 1. he gets all mine, including Toyotas. only 1's he CAN'T do, not won't, are the crimptype on the mbs that required the 700 usd tool to seal the boot. i'd look in your area and be prepared to give up the car for a day. good work isn't fast. my guy when he's slow, can do a pair of axles in about 3 hours. busy-next day.

buying just a joint has gone out of sight. too many cheap news and remans out there. good luck, chuck.
