Passenger side axel repair cost

If the axle was $287 then-then the rest is labor but that is a very expensive used axle in my opinion. I really suggest you get a second opinion especially if he missed the collapsed engine mounts. Use this link to find a good shop near you. https://repairpal.com/repair-shops Alex

That's way out of line for the axle and the installation!

I'm a little confused.,and I believe the mechanic is a whole lot hungry! You can buy a Brand New CV Axle at rockauto.com for $61.00 with a Lifetime Warranty and that price includes $10.00 shipping charge! Suggest getting other opinions from trusted repair shops,and highly suggest NOT putting a used cv axle from a scrap yard in your vehicle! copy and paste the link below. good luck.... https://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog/dodge,2000,neon,2.0l+l4,1358085,drivetrain,cv+half+shaft+assembly,2288
