Subject: [CR]trike rear axle sizes

I'm looking at my spare axles for my Ken Rogers today and find that I have two different sizes. The trike has an 11" idler axle (right side) and a 16 1/2" drive axle. Some of my spares measure 10 1/2" for the idler axle and 15 5/8" for the drive axle. I do have a 16" spare but no 11" spare. Is the longer axle meant for a tandem trike? If so then my solo trike must have been built with tandem rear axles.
