There are easy 50 to 100 ways you COULD do it. (in others words lots of options)

How much you have to spend and whats local to you VS if you are willing to get something shipped to you can and will play a big part. 

What are you looking to spend on the axles for YOUR machine? That will help others here help you better.

Also whats local to you for parts?

Not more than 350$ for the two
I have no problem with shipping the part because I know someone is going to ship the parts from the US to my place for free :)

Use type 4 CV joints found on the VW Thing, Porsche 924, and Porsche 954.
