DO NOT order reman axles from eEuroparts!

After doing my share of CV and boot replacements by removing the CV from the outer axle, I decided to heed the recommendations on the board and do the whole half axle for less money. I ordered two EMPI units from eEuroparts, tore down both axles on my 98CSE, tried to bolt everything up and found the new units where 1/2" too long. Not enough to spot on visual inspection but enough to make it impossible to bolt up. eEuroparts couldn't explain it, took them back and I ordered the CV kits. The kits for your car are $120 ea and include the boot, clamp and nut. I don't know why you would go through the trouble of repacking a pair of unknown CVs when you can do new for about $200 more and reset the maintenance record to 0 miles!
