my mechanic told me that it was going to cost about $190 for just the part, he was thinking that replacing the axle would help too, and be easier, he said that it would be a couple hour job and the end price would be around $250-300, i thought that this sounded good, but i was just looking for some advice, i also looked around to other shops and they were telling me about 200 for the part,
thanks

joint and boot to be fitted. There is no point in replacimng the whole driveshaft.
If the joint itself is still OK, just get a new boot fitted. Do not let them tell you it is difficult, I have done many at home and now it takes about 55 mins all in. It is easier to remove the driveshaft to do it definetely.
