Expert Reply:

Typically 60" long axles are for smaller 2K or 2.2K axles. Since you're needing 3.5K axles you'll need to use the Timbren # A35RS545E for the axle with brakes and Timbren # A35RS545 for the axle without brakes. The spindle isn't a straight spindle but it sits around the 1-1/16" diameter and the replacement bearing kit is part # BK2-100 (for when you need to perform maintenance).

If you're wanting to stick with a traditional-style axle then you'll need to speak with a local shop about having one fabricated or ordered special. The great things about the Timbrens are that you will have increased ground clearance, and it's much easier to install since there is just a bracket that attached to the frame instead of a whole leaf spring suspsneion system.
