Thanks for the response.
I called my Acura dealer (prior to reading you response). The price of an
axle from the dealer is $250 per side. I am not sure if this is a
remanufactured axle or a new one. For that price, I assume it is a new
axle. I will call back and ask about your suggestion of replacing the
joints.
