You would need to buy hubs to go on the axle stubs, stock stub diameter is 5/8", but the factory ones are cheap and will bend or break, if they haven't already.
Probly the best all around approach, is to cut off the existing stub, and weld in a new grade 8, 3/4" bolt. You will need to drill through both the front and rear of the spindle and run the bolt through, and then weld it on both sides. You can find plenty of 3/4" ID bearing hubs at various suppliers, but I doubt you will find any with the stock yerf bolt pattern, which is 4/110mm, they will most likely be the popular 4/4" bolt pattern, which golf carts and trailers use. If you need, I have some golf cart wheels here I can send you, that will match the tires and hubs. PM me if you want these rims.
Another way( the way I went), is to use weld in trailer axle stubs, I ran 1" spindle, rated at 2k lbs. with high speed tapered roller bearings with the 4/4" pattern. Check my build thread and you can see how massive they look, but I will not have any issues with them, and they are inexpensive for the entire kit.
