Hi Dennis,
Funny that I went through this with NAPA here in CT 2 years ago.  Their part
# for the 4kq front pass axle produced the wrong length.  We actually had to
make the warehouse people measure the axle for correct length before sending
out the 3rd replacement.

Otherwise, for $69 you cannot beat the deal.

Ciao.
