Your not going to find genuine NEW axles, but used ones are floating around. Whats wrong with used ones, anyway? With some new axle studs, theyre good as new. They dont have the bearings riding on the axles like 10-bolts, so theyre usually still in good shape when you pull 'em. Even my 200 some odd thousand mile ones where still in great shape when I took the bearings off.

Should be able to find good used ones on eBay. Like dimented24x7 said usually they are in good shape. If there not bent, cracked, or splines twisted I would just use them.

If you want new ones Moser might be able to cut some for you. IMO it won't be worth it for the cost because they'll be custom one offs and probably have a high price tag.
