You can get driveshaft shop ones but:

1.) I don't think they are balanced as the car vibrated ever since installing
2.) The hub wore out after about 3k miles. A new one from DSS was just under $200
3.) They don't come painted and they rust
4.) Supplied lug bolts are wayyyyy too long so buy your own before installing unless you plan on running a spacer
5.) My current ones have been problem free, but 1st set broke really fast, next set was too long and would not fit

On the other hand, customer service is very good and they will honor their warranty

By me there are a few shops that rebuild CVs. I would look into getting new ends put on the bar. Probably much cheaper.

Why you wanna replace Mr. Rose?

I need this too. My vote goes for the OEM ones. They are very good.
