I have a solution for you, but there is not an available axle with exactly 92.5" hub face to hub face or 78.5" spring center to center measurements that could be used as a replacement. For this reason, I would recommend re-measuring to make sure that your measurements are correct (since they're extremely close to available stock axles, the measurement could be off if it was taken from the damaged axle).

If you're able to re-measure your existing, non-damaged axle, and you have 94" hub face to hub face and 79" spring center to spring center you can use the Dexter Trailer Axle Beam with E-Z Lube Spindles # 8327864 ; this axle has a 7000-lb capacity, 3" diameter and a 5 bolt brake flange as well as E-Z Lube spindles to help make greasing the bearings possible without disassembling your hubs. This axle has 94" hub face to hub face and 79" spring center to spring center.

If you re-measure the spacing dimensions on your axle and you are able to confirm the measurements you provided, this would be a custom axle and since you have a tandem axle trailer you would need to have an exact match.
