I assume rebuilt means they take the old axle apart, clean the bearing cage, balls, whatever, inspect for wear, scoring, pitting, etc, reasemble, pack with new grease, put new boot on and basically give you back "new" CV axle shaft.

AZ lists them for $79 for my 1982 300TD with lifetime warranty. For that price I'm not gonna mess with replacing the boots. I don't really care what "rebuilt" means if they are gonna give me a LTW.

Your SDL might be a lot more. Then the reboot price is pretty good then.
