use your old axle than buy the proper bearings and inner spacer for it. Cheaper than a new $78 axle. Good bearings cost around $12/each and the spacer is around $7.

if you use the 2010 bearings you must use the 2010 axle.. same with using the 2007 axle you must use the 2007 bearings ... or like I mentioned earlier .. take your 2010 wheel and 2007 axle to a machine shop and have them turn the axle to .983 in a lathe and it'll be a 2010 axle .....if you were close to me I would do it for you....and you wont have to rent the axle bearing puller or pay HD or an Indy to pull the bearings for you and press new in...
