The axles are well within specs for that trailer. 7500GVWR but you have forgotten to subtract 1000 pounds for the hitch weight. So as long as your scaled weight is under the GVWR you should only have at most around 6000 pounds on the axles. Bent qxles and now broken axles this soon after purchase, I have to think one of three things. Either your grossly overloaded, are extremely rough on your trailer, or there was a mfg flaw with your trailer.
Sorry for your issues, but you need to look seriously at a lot of things before you start the blame game.
