Mobile home axles are designed for one-time use only by the manufacturer. Because of this it is very difficult to find any replacement parts. It kind of sounds like you are talking about a 4 on 9.44 bolt pattern. We do have some wheels like this that I have linked for you.

I do not recommend keeping that axle because of the lack of parts available and because its designed for one-time use. What I would do is replace the axle. You can order an axle from a local tractor or trailer supply store (we only sell axles locally, we cannot ship them) and get it equipped however you would like. They can come with or without brakes or hubs. A new axle will have common parts that are easily replaceable.
