I will polish the new axle and grease it up real nice.
By the way, the next time (I hope you don't) have to hammer out a bolt , thread the nut on to the threads so you'll be less likely to damage the threaded male portion of the bolt/axle. I think I've seen a rear wheel assembly on eBay recently. Not sure. Keep at it and be glad your bike isn't 35 years old like my ol' Honda.

Cheers,

Bill
