I figured under $1k for two complete axles with brakes and stuff was pretty decent.


Not really. I get complete axles at the junkyard for $60 each and I do get heavy duty axles, not little 10 bolts. You might say that I don't know what kind of condition my junkyard axles are in, but who's guaranteeing the condition of these $1K axles? The gears aren't really what I would want for an "upgrade" anyhow.
