At $661 for an 850 shaft, they better be better than OEM.

What I find just a bit odd is that they say the driveshafts are NEW but then the description says they come with new cv joints, boots etc, so clearly remanufactured rather than new. Oh well, with the speed balancing they say they do it shouldn't matter. But still.

You can get brand new OEM shaft direct from Volvo for around $350.00.

Yeah, right.
How many can you get at $350, I'll take a few
MSRP is over a grand!
