Question Has anyone had to replace front drivers side axle on a 2002-2WD RX300?

My wifes is clicking a little, but I want to replace it. I went to the parts stores and they said they couldnt get that one. I called the dealer and they want $740(no way). Is there any other possible solution in finding this part? Thanks in advance. Glad to be part of this community. I love forums.

I went to a Napa and they had the drivers side Axlel assembly, it was $92 and made by Cardonne. Mine is AWD, but is probably similiar....Go to RockAuto.com... they have yours for around $70 plus core charge. I have dealt with them and they are great....

You will have to click your year, model, etc...let the screens come up and look under drive train......

Thanks, I'll check with rockauto. It must be some special part since not any of the local part stores can get it.

Edit:
located the part,http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/raframecatalog.php
A-1 CARDONE Part # 605186. Appears to be the right part and all. I just wonder why Lexus wants $740 for it?
