Exclamation 1999 RX300 Rear Axle Part

Hey guys I have been looking for the rear axles for a 1999 lexus rx300 for some time now. I have went to autozone and several autoparts stores and they either give me the wrong part(part looks like it has two male ends). When I finally was able to purchase a part that looked familiar the bolts didn't line up and the diameter look alot smaller on the new one. What other alternatives do I have for this part besides the dealership?

Cant tell which part you are looking for.

Try half shaft assembly.

Is the inner CV joint bad?

I would go to a junk yard and pull the shaft off. Just make sure the ends are not pulled apart as the CV joint will come apart.
