Properly welded, it will last forever. To properly weld the axle, you will need to grind both ends to be tapered. The center would not have to be a sharp point, but you want to be small enough that when you weld it that you have very close to one hundred percent penetration. To taper the inner portion you might be getting very close to the surface that the seal rides on. Naturally you want to avoid getting close to it.

If the welding draws it away from straight, straighten it and keep welding until it is finished. If the tractor rides like a clown car, buy a replacement.
