Anyone got a line on an Axle

[Emay]

Sheered the drivers side CV joint at the hub end on a hard launch in my 2012 5.0 RSPEC. From Hyundai they net $940 plus shipping for it. Not having any of that jazz. I'll pull it, leave the car down and have rebuilt if I have to. Curious if anyone knows of an aftermarket or reman path for them. OEM Part number posts as 49600-3M300 from my digging thus far.

Unfortunately these cars are expensive to repair because Hyundai OEM parts supply is a monopoly in Korea.

Your dealer is not be the most expensive out there. This site is more or less the same:

2009-2016 Hyundai Axle Assembly 49600-3M300 | Parts Hyundai

And this one charges more.

496003M300 - Hyundai Cv axle assembly. Shaft assembly - drive rear (rr), left hand (lh) | Wholesale Hyundai Parts, Lakeland FL

You can also try a LKQ or other u-pull-it yard of course. This ebay post looks a bit dubious, but you never know...

Elected to just rebuild thru suburban driveline. Upgrading the cv components so I don't have this issue again. $120 each, universal sign to Hyundai OEM part supply is flyin high.

had had a similar problem with my old 87 MR2 I use to have, I could find passenger cv shafts all day long, which also seems to be the case for the Genesis after doing some looking around for you, but nobody had a driver side cv shaft.

just a quick google shows passenger side cv's are around $200 for the Genesis but can find any driver side. really weird.

edizzle89 - I too saw the passenger sides popping all over. As low as $145, the drivers side has all the ECU components for signalling the ECS, wheel speed, Pbrake engagement etc it's not $945 worth, but the axle is definitely different. So the advice up front is to bust the passengers side unless you have a local establishment that can rebuild these drivers side axles for you.
