I have a 88 Camry 4 cyl station wagon. I have already replaced the CV
joint on the LH side. Now I need to replace the RH side. THere is
something different on the RH side, it looks like there is an
intermediate bearing or something between the transaxle output and the
CV joint. But Autozone shows only one CV joint p/n for both sides, no
LH/ RH joint. Maybe the CV joint just mates up to that bearing plate
in the same way as the LH side mates directly to the transaxle (with
about 8-10 bolts)?

Make sure you give them the birth place of your camry. There were japan
and american and canadian models. The Japan and American models use
different axles. If you can unbolt the passenger side cv at the
intermediate shaft that goes into the tranny then you can use the
shorter cv axle if not you will have to get the complete 2 piece drive
axle....

There are slip-on or bolt-on axles. Both side should be the same type
depending on the production. But they are DIFFERENT lengths and yes
the RH does have a support bearing.

Have you check the local NAPA store? I'm more comfortable with NAPA
rebuilts personally and you get good warranty. I buy from all parts
stores, but just not too sure about rebuilts from some of these major
consumer-oriented chains.
