I found this rear axle on Ebay
Does it look beefier than the original?
Its on and it is stronger than the original. Turns out that it is narrower so I will have to weld the original with the reinforcement plates and put it back on.
I have now my stock rear axle back on. This one is available if someone on the forum wants it (200 plus 50 for shipping). Remember that it is narrower so most likely needs to go on a 2 seater utility GEM I think.
