Without having done a lot of research, it looks like new half shafts for an '87 are around $800. I didn't see any remanufactured options off hand, but they must be out there. For CV joints, it looks like they are around $150 just for the joint.
So, what are the options, other than a brand new axle? I prefer quality remanufactured since I don't normally enjoy messing with CV joints. The ones that I have experience with are a royal pain. I have a leak from the clamp on one of the inner boots. The boot itself is fine. But, if I'm going to mess with it, I'd rather not have to mess with it again for a long time. Rather than just reclamp the boot, I'd like to consider replacing both half shafts or rebuilding them myself.
