I'm trying to avoid spending $375 per rear axle/CV joint for my 325i. I came across this at autopartswarehouse.com. Does anyone have experience with these remanufactured parts? 1987-1993 BMW 325i - A1 Cardone Axle Assembly Our Price: $87.01 Core: $96.00 Quantity: Part Number: A1609063 MFR#: 609063 "CONSTANT VELOCITY DRIVE AXLE, REMANUFACTURED -- A High Quality, Direct Fit OE Replacement Constant Velocity Drive Axle, Features 100% Neoprene Boots For Excellent Ozone Resistance, 3% Moly Grease Providing Excellent High Temperature And Extreme Pressure Characteristics Extending The Life Of The Joint, And 100% Chased Splines And Threads Eliminating Installation Hassle" Fit Note: "Rear, Right".
I don't have any experience with this particular part but i have had good experience with autopartswarehouse.com. If they say the part is OEM and will work, i have confidnence it will be fine.
A1 Cardone is a well known rebuilder. I've used some of their bits for different cars. you might be better looking at a local store, however, because if there is any issue it is a damn sight easier to take the part in and hollar at someone than it is to ship it awaqy (and pay the bill) and wait and wait. esp for something like starters<G> Often I find that Kragens and AutoZone are real similar in price to online places (though i do buy a fair bit at rockauto)
