Is there anything else I can do to get the axle to go in the hub other than change out the entire arm??
This is a nightmare situation.

DO NOT FILE!!!
Try turning the hub/axle and finding a point where they are happy.
Make sure the hub splines are clean. Small wire brush helps here.
Only touch up any burrs with a file. Do NOT file the splines!
Try putting the axles in the freezer.
