In order to choose the correct replacement axle, you will need to know the dimensions of your current axle's hub-face to hub-face and spring center to spring center as in the diagram I have added; the other thing you would want to know is the weight capacity of the axle you need. I've added a link to our selection of axles for you to take a look at.
