Hal,

I might have a spare or two.  Let me know which side.  No guaranty that
these are any good, you'd have to have them magnafluxed.  I used forged
axles on the racecars for this very reason.

The machine shop I use sees a lot of Spridget spindles and says about 25%
of the ones he tests are cracked.

David.
