Urgently need front left (and right?) CV axles... looks like dealer has backorder (L1MZ-3A427-G, left no right)... driving 100 miles a day @ 120k miles and worried about compounding issues.

Considering autozone's duralast and O'Reilly's precision branded parts but can't find right and left... Could greatly use some help finding proper part numbers for a DIY project; links to shops with quick lead times extra bonus. Located in DFW, Texas.

Also also, need one-time-use parts (LB5Z-3B477-A qty*1, W715932-S439 qty*4, W520517-S440 qty*4)?

Edit: I think O'Reilly's precision brad will be my quickest, best, bet... but I only see the left..
I deduced the right P/N is FD86015 (because left-front is #14, and rear is #16 & #17). The specs match up EXCEPT for the lengths... can someone verify if the left CV axle is longer than right?

Precision CV Axle Shaft - New FD86014 | O'Reilly Auto Parts (ORlly's verified to fit aviator)
Overall Compressed Length (in): 26-3/16 Inch
Precision CV Axle Shaft - New FD86015 | O'Reilly Auto Parts (NOT verified)
Overall Compressed Length (in): 25-9/16 Inch
