Default Aftermarket axle shaft?

My axles are clicking on turns and I know the rear ones are leaking. I know you can drive it like this fine for awhile, but I just want to change it out. How are aftermarket ones compare to oem? Obviously aftermarket is much cheaper compare to oem, so would it matter to go aftermarket?

Thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks!

Reman half shafts are usually OEM cores that are cleaned, inspected, and re-packed with grease. So mostly OEM components with fresh grease. I'd go with AutoZone reman half shafts, as they come with a lifetime warranty. I used such warranties ALOT when I was working on my Hondas.

Good thinking. Lifetime warranty will be great.
