Well, it can be expensive if you have the work done and depending on what you end up doing.

If a CV joint is bad, you might as well source a half axle. Prices vary from under $100 used to $400 for new. The bearing is cheap..under $50.

Thing is, if you are going to replace the axle, go ahead and do the bearing (and vice versa) as the labor involved is similar.

I repacked CV boots ($10 each) and replaced a bearing a few years back. Took me about 4 hours. I was on a lift and had access to a press to R/R the bearing.

If you have this done, figure on $400-$600 labor.
