Default Help - CV joint/drive axle availability?

1998 A4 2.8 (no Quattro)

My CV boot is torn on the passenger side, and the CV joint clicks when I turn. Do you know where I can find a replacement part without having to pay dealer prices? Thanks!

Default I just put my 98.5 AVANT in this morning to have the same items replaced...

Dealer will have it finished by 5p today and the cost with an oil change came out to $306.00.

I dont think there was an issue with parts, but I did have to make an appointment two weeks ago.

Audi says it's out of warranty; It only has 43k miles, but it's > 3 years old.
