Fwiw I don't see how these are low cost
There is a core charge, so either give back your own OEM axles or pay over the cost of OEM at Stevinson.
Your cheapest option if you don't plan on rebooting yourself is having someone else reboot. Reboot kit + labor.
Next would be replacement with OEM which is cost of axle + labor.
CVJ is $200 core charge if you don't have your own I am guessing, so $200 Per axle+ axle+ labor.
I can't speak to Cruisers but for my Tacoma a new 43430-04070 OEM lists for $468 and the best price is $330. CVJ sells a straight reman using Toyota inner and outer boots for $199 with a $95 core charge.
They offer a $123 lowest cost using aftermarket boots. This is an option maybe if you're in a pinch but one problem with aftermarket axles is the boots tend to split quickly, sometimes just in a year or two. Especially on Tacos the outer one, which is plastic from Toyota and not rubber, is much longer lasting. I wouldn't go any lower than the OEM option from CVJ personally.
The factory outer boot kit for my truck is $33 list, $24 best price, and in the inner is $53 list, $38 best price. So their time is on the order of $113 to $137, probably about right assuming it takes less than an hour for labor plus shop overhead.
There's the core charge, so if you keep your old one it ends up a wash cost-wise when you can get the really good pricing. If you don't keep the core that's still $130 in your pocket and if you don't happen to have access to the club pricing it's $268 cheaper and that's nothing to sneeze at IMO.
I am not so quick to believe CVJ is "better". There is a lot of lawyer talk for what sounds like not better quality on the entire product. Why would you want something " near" best quality? Also is your vehicle lifted cause I am assuming that is what is meant by additional clearance +1".
I don't think anyone says it's better than a new OEM but when looking at cost vs benefit I think people are saying (I am at least) that it's perhaps an acceptable option. It's a used factory CV axle that's been cleaned and new boots put on.
But in most cases the ones on your truck right now are also used and they're fine so not being new doesn't automatically make them bad. Wear is a spectrum and what you're getting with a CVJ would maybe be an axle that goes 100,000 miles instead of 200,000 or whatever. It's a dollar-per-mile analysis.
The one difference is CVJ offers a silicone inner boot option, which is some people think is an improvement over the stock rubber one. They still use the OEM plastic outer, so if the axle they started with wasn't trashed you are getting a pretty good axle that might actually be preferred to the new OEM. On my Taco the top axle is $251 vs. that $330 best price, of course ignoring the core charge.
My thinking would be to buy perhaps one CVJ using OEM kits, eat the core charge and get two sets of boot kits to rebuild mine. Then you end up with three rebuilt OEM axles for roughly the price of one new. But I'm also not considering the cost to have a mechanic do any of the work. If you're paying someone to do all the work the material cost changes importance since it's better to have them spend less time putting on ready-to-go parts.
