One more thing about prices:
I have 96 Maxima. Frontend should be very similar to yours, aside from the engine. Driveaxles should be about the same.
Driveaxles remanufactured are about $80. You have to return your old axle to them. So that talk of 300 bux/axle is a ripoff. Maybe they give you brand new axle, but remanufactured is just as good, and 10x better than replacing just the boot IMO.
Someone I know from Maxima.org charged me $40/axle for labor, which is pretty good IMO. This guy is a mechanic for a big chain by day, and does work in his garage on weekends.
Assuming that you pay double labor and $100 for remanufactured axle, it shouldn't cost you more than $200 to replace the whole axle. Like I said I don't recommend just replacing the boot.
