If everything else is good and the pattern is good you should be able to just replace the axle. Be sure to measure the shims on the housing when taking it apart and replace with the same. How did you break the axle, not enough torque on the axle nut? If that is the case be sure the other side doesn't have a crack starting to work its way through it. If you are running hydraulics you might want to look into safety hubs or clips.
