2002 Toyota Corolla -- Right Front Axle

Hi all,

I was told the 'clamp' (CV clamp) on the passenger side front axle was 'leaking grease' even though the boot appears to be just fine. They told me I may be able to replace the clamp which is like $5.00. I also heard it may be better to just replace the axle. Well... that axle runs $560. Is that about right to you guys? I would prefer to go OEM but am wondering if it's that necessary. I've seen it much cheaper elsewhere... but, you get what you pay for sometimes.

This is a 2002 Toyota Corolla w/ 127,000 miles. Automatic. No ABS. Front wheel drive.

Thanks for insight.
