Default Left rear axle needed

I need an axle and hub for my 99 boxster 5 speed I thought I would try here to see if any body has one for sale. Left side.

Thanks

Might have to source this from a business that specializes in used Boxster/Porsche parts.

There happens to be such a business near where I work. Check out Parts Heaven in Hayward, CA. I have done business there a couple of times and have nothing but positive things to say about the business.

If nothing suitable turns up from another source give Parts Heaven a call and see if it can help you. I'm sure it has the part, probably a number of them. You'll want to be sure regarding the number you get the right one, of course you are ok with the price and shipping arrangement and what kind of warranty or exchange policy is available should the part prove to be bad.

I guess I'd try Pelican.

You could try to get one from 20th Street Automotive in Phoenix. Or Woody in Central Texas.

What's wrong with the hub? What's wrong with the axle. For the hub, replacement bearings are available. For the axle, you could do a major clean up and replace the grease and the boots.

I think I'd look for one in Canada, tho. To avoid our president's trade war tariffs.

Where did you get it? Curious so I can add it to my list of sources. I only have 3 Canadian sources for used/wrecked parts as of now.
