Based on the brake flange in your photo, even though we do not know exactly what capacity you have, it is at least 5,200 pounds. Unfortunately, with torsion axles like the one in your picture, you do need to replace the whole unit. This is because if you try to weld on a new spindle, the rubber on the axle can melt/become ruined. Therefor, I recommend purchasing a new unit like the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System - 4" Lift Spindle w/ Brake Flange - 5,200 lbs # TASR5200S03.

If you have a larger capacity axle, I went head and attached a link to all of our options.
