Looking to replace Left and Right cv axle due to boots being ripped and throwing grease. What’s the best brand to go with ? I’ve heard Factory ones are the only ones that aren’t junk but any other opinions ?

OEM would be your best bet for replacement if your willing to pay the higher cost. I replaced one of mine last year with a Cardone new replacement part due to needing to replace asap and OEM was not available in a reasonable amount of time. So far all is well ,but I did notice a difference in the boot. It has less ribs than the OEM , which may be an issue with lifted trucks. More ribs may benefit to it's flexibility than less ribs.
