+1 what Javi said. I would try and get the free axle no matter what. Then you have options.
1) Dealers torque these campers around on their lots with fork lifts so it is possible it was bent before you picked it up. If that is the case and you're careful about how you turn the camper then maybe the OEM axle will work for you.
2) If you don't want to risk it then you could trade/sell the smaller axle for a larger one.
Be aware some of us have been down this path. We fix one thing (the current weakest link) only to have another pop up. I replaced my tires then bent the spring hangers. Just be aware that if you replace the axle with a HD one, it may lead to causing other problems next. The #1 thing you can do to avoid problems is try not to turn your camper so tightly that it causes the tires to skid. If you have no choice but to do that try and do it on dirt or sand or something that will help break the grip of your tires.
my 2 cents.
