Most of the forum vendors have codes and/or give discounts if you call. But from a 3 second search it looks like Amazon wins it for low price at $341.45 for the rear 32-spline rubi shafts.
If you aren't pressing the bearings yourself, add that into the cost. (the two links for Northridge above, 1st is the shaft package, second is with labor for them pressing the bearings = a quicker easier install for you). Wouldn't hurt to call and see if they can price match if you don't want to mess with that.
Hmm, just looked at their pricing again. Pre-assembled and ready to go is $40 cheaper than the DIY kit? Nice 'bundle savings' price!!

I've not looked at those before, but that warranty sure seems nice, specially for those running 37"+ tires. Bent flanges are just a thing if you use the rig hard enough.

Are these on amazon. I looked at couple sets there but couldn’t tell which were pre-assembled. I can’t believe they’d be cheaper than the diy kit. Can you point me in the right direction. Thanks in advance!

That was talking about the two Northridge links I posted earlier.
The Amazon set I saw is the same as the non-assembled set in the Northridge link. It will need the bearings pressed. Or talk to Northridge and see if they can pricematch (and probably add some assembly labor on top?)
