The axle got hot enough to bend, The spindles (at the hub)are probably 4130 alloy and tempered. when heated and allowed to cool in a ash pile, they anneal (become as soft as they can ever be) and will now bend with stress. the threads will be soft, and the spindle shafts (vertical shaft in the housing will also be annealed. If the building was cooled with fire hoses, the resulting quenching can make tough things brittle, exactly the opposite of annealing. The factory heat treatment and hardening was scientific and done well. (even if they do break when stressed). I gotta say unless they are rechecked for dimensional accuracy, and re heat treated (way expensive) they are toast. Sorry, Jim
