In most cases, it's going to be more cost effective to replace all of the components than it is to simply swap out the axle. You could go with a complete axle like the Dexter Trailer Axle w/ Electric Brakes - E-Z Lube - 8 on 6-1/2 Bolt Pattern - 94" - 7,000 lbs # 8327864-EB if your current axle is 94" from hub face to hub face. In reality, it's probably going to be most cost effective to replace your hubs, drums and brakes though.

If you can confirm the bolt pattern on your current wheels, and let me know the bearings that are in your current hubs, I can help you locate the correct hubs and brakes for your 2017 Dutchman Voltage Toy Hauler.

I was able to find out the parts you need based off of the V number. It looks like you've got inner bearing 25580 and outer bearing 14125A on your current hubs. To replace the hubs and drums I recommend that you use the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly - 7,000-lb Axles - 12" Diameter - 8 on 6-1/2 - Pre-Greased # AKHD-865-7-2-K, which come pre-greased and ready for installation. These hubs use the same 25580 inner and 14125A outer bearings that you've currently got and are the correct fit for your spindles. For the brakes, I recommend using self adjusting brakes like the Electric Trailer Brake Kit - Self-Adjusting - 12" - Left and Right Hand Assemblies - 5.2K to 7K # AKEBRK-7-SA. You will need brake mounting hardware with this kit, which can be obtained with part # BRKH12. I've linked some review and installation videos of these for you to have a look at, as well.
