Well, you're kind of screwed. (oh so punny)
But seriously, that's a big problem that requires a big fix. Pretty much what needs to be done is (don't do this yourself, please get a modder to do it for you) drill out the axle hole and then re-tap the hole for a larger axle.

I had this problem with a pyro once, you know... that really crappy chopped pyro that wobbles that gets put on the BST every two weeks?
Yeah, that one.

I ended up with it and asked Icthus if it was possible to re-tap it, so I'm guessing he's skilled at re-tapping yoyo threads with larger axles. Go ask around, Kyle could do it too.

You could also wrap a lot of teflon tape on it for a quick temporary fix. That should hold it in.
