The dealership estimate was crazy. Will probably take my car to a local mechanic.

J, both of those are relatively easy tasks on the I30, which is identical to the Maxima.
The radiator can be tackled by a novice, and replacement radiator can be had from RadiatorBarn for around $100. Make sure to replace hoses and thermostat as well.
The drive axle is a little more difficult, but not impossible for the "backyard mechanic".
You can find assistance with the specifics either by downloading a service manual for your I30 (which every owner should have) here:

Close to $3K. Is the car worth putting that kind of money into.

I would assume around $2,000.
