We have a couple of axles that may work for you, # 20440I-ST-60 or # 20440I-EZ-60. These axles are 60 inches long, hub face to hub face, and 48 inches spring center to spring center. You will want to double check the spring seat measurement and if it is actually closer to 48 inches then either of these axles will work. Otherwise the spring seats would have to be removed and welded back on at the proper spacing by a qualified professional welder.
Both axles come with idler hubs with a 4 on 4 bolt pattern. The difference is that 20440I-EZ-60 has EZ Lube spindles and a 2,000 pound capacity while 20440I-ST-60 has regular spindles with the same capacity. I have linked video reviews of both axles for you.
