Default Bummer...

A remaned axle is $130ish at most places.

Not to bad or messy if you do it yourself.

Default it's not such a bad job...

Atleast if its the same as my 90- all you have to do is take off the wheel, pop off the ball joint, take off the center bolt pull out the spring assembly from the axle, and then attack the torques with a long extention from the wheel well. They rebuilt the ones on the 90 for $90 each. Then it goes together pretty quick, just make sure those torques are tight. See ya at waterfest! I'll email you before hand.
