Angry 2005 Rear Axle Assembly

Well, its about that time in her life when she needs some serious parts replacement. While doing the rear wheel hubs I noticed that the Driver Side Rear Axle Assembly was quite worn as well. I can't seem to find a reasonably priced part anywhere online. I'm not looking to spend 500 dollars on an OEM part, I'm fine with a cheapy. I see the Front Axle Assemblies all over for as little as 70 dollars. But no rear ones to be found. If anyone has any idea please clue me in?!

Are you referring to AWD? Here's some FWD rears that are cheap.

Carver, actually all but the last one are for AWD. Am curious to know what the difference is between the two Centric listings. The seller does not make that clear. Would give me some pause before dealing with this vendor.

Default I think you misunderstood me...

What I'm looking for is not the wheel hub assy, but instead the axle itself. On AWD models in the rear, the part that comes out of the differential, and connects to the wheel hub via the axle carrier. This is the part that the wheel hub slides onto. One of the boots was damaged and the salt and water got to the joint over time.
Looks like that (sorta) but I need it for the rear driver side of a 2005 RX330, I have found OEM ones, but they're like 500-700 bucks. Looking for a cheapie!!

Best you are going to do is to find a used one pulled off a wreck. Continue to check eBay or to check your local parts recycler, such as:
