See if Autozone carries them. They should b/c I can get them from local parts suppliers. Autozone will probably be $75 plus core charge but give them the core and you will get that $ back. Plus they have lifetime warranty.

I'm not sure if they have axles, but try this site:

http://oemacuraparts.com/

acuraautomotiveparts.org seems to be more expensive.

I had acura replace my driver side axle shaft when they replaced the tranny.

They didn't have any in stock and ordered it from NAPA...
They told me it cost $450...
I knew I should have just replaced it myself, I just checked on AutoZone's web site and they are only $69 each with a $55 core charge!!!


Has anyone had acura replace their axle when replacing the tranny?
I was installing my AEM CAI the other day and I noticed that there was a lot of grease on the new tranny that looked to have been from the axle shaft spinning (right where the Inner CV boot is). I checked the boot and didn't see any splits in it, but I was curious if anyone else has had this.

the boot might have slid off from the clamp not being tight enough. although i had a pinhole in mine and it covered pretty much my entire wheelwell with axle grease.

If you got the Acuracare Extended warranty the axles are covered...too bad the clutch isn't covered... I'm about to get raped.

Ok, here are links to the pages on amazon. They are for CL not CLS. If you browse the sellers other items, they may have the CLS axles.

This is the left axle
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...496053?ie=UTF8

This is the right axle
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...496053?ie=UTF8

The axles are for $49.99 each and if you choose the 'super saver shipping' it will take longer, but be free.

Hope this helps...

cool thanks man, but i really want to get some with a lifetime warrranty, just in case they do wear out again, they can be replaced hassle free....
and do you guys know if any other parts will need to be purchased at all to complete the install?
