    My 2010 base Prius 3 170k miles needs a rear axle beam replacement -rusted and cracked. Are new after market replacement parts as good as or better than salvage? Any recommended vendors? eBay has many with prices from $220 to $350 w/shipping. -probably best to get new bearing/hubs as well as stuff is quite rusted. Disks and rotors are fine.
