Hey Paul; the Triton 22979 is not something that we carry. I looked around online and wasn't able to find one so unless Triton can supply it directly you're probably going to need a different axle. To find a replacement you need to know the capacity as well as the hub face measurement. Ideally you will be able to find the capacity on the axle tag. I went ahead and attached a video below which shows how to measure.
If you're already calling Triton to see if they have the axle or know where to get one I would expect them to have this information which will save you some trouble. If you can get me this information and add it to the comments below I can see what is available.

Hey Paul, were you able to get the axle specs from Triton or find the capacity and hub face measurements? Once you have that info, I can help narrow down a good replacement. Let me know what you find so we can get you set up.
