Looking for recommendation on new front axles

[V8 Runner]

After having my Bilstien and daystar spacers for a year, I've noticed a significant amount of shaking. Turns out my front axle boot is all twisted and both of the front will need to be replaced.
My guess is that the minor lift affected the 200k miles old axles. Would I be okay with OEM axles or should i get aftermarket ones (extended)?

Thanks in advance!

CVJ Axles....

They use only toyota parts, and they have a new style inner boot that is a symthetic material or something and lasts much longer on our lifted trucks.

what do they cost and where can you buy them from? Their website isn't very helpful in that regard (other than call or email)

I bought reman'd OEM CV axles from the dealer. I'd have try and go back through paperwork to figure what i paid but had I turned in the old ones for the core refund I would've got them for around $90 each I think. I decided to keep my old ones so I can reboot them and have spares to pop on again if I need to. One of mine tore a boot at around 100k and I just changed both since the other one likely would have torn soon. I got them changed quickly so there was no grit or mess that got into the joint. New grease and boots will have them good as new. Be careful of aftermarket. Several people have had fitment issues leading to leaks from the front diff.

You put 200k miles on the stock ones I'm sure you'd be fine replacing with stock.
