Nissan Repair: repair rear axle, assembly source, wrecking yard

Question
How much should I expect to spend to repair the rear axle on a 2003 Altima?

Answer
Martha,

Are you talking about the bearing or the entire assembly?  If it is the assembly source one from a wrecking yard.  A couple of hundred plug labor.  If you are just talking about the bearing then $250 plus labor.  These are just estimates as where you live makes a difference in shop prices as well as parts.  If you do it yourself there is rockauto.com to source the bearing and greenleaf wrecking for the assembly.
