RE: Clod Axles?
I would recomend any chassis from crawford, as i just got one with 16" wheelbase and carbon fiber links[8D]. It is very light unit and the quality is amazing. i got the evolution model, which was recomended by Dez, i also have a NN chassis coming my way, that last one is used more for competition as i understand.
As for the diffs, try e-bay, i did but ended buying a whole new clod kit from tower for a little more money then what a used set of diffs was going for, and you get wheels/tires and some other stuff you can use or sell back on e-bay.

So theres no way to just order replacement axles from tower, you gotta pay 100$+ just for some axles...
Also if a break one theres no way to fix with out buying another 100$ set?
Sounds kinda lame, are there any other options?

ThunderTech Racing has a Clod junkyard section.
Answer to your first question, yeah, usually clod axles will run pretty high for a set or each infact.
