Selectable locker for Sterling?

So in the need to rebuild my axle... I thought about getting a e-locker/selectable locker for it. Does anyone know of a e-locker for a sterling 10.25? Or it I can get one off of a Sterling 10.50? I do mostly on-road towing but I do get off road enough and sometimes 2wd just can't cut it. I looked at the ARB but I cannot have an air-powered locker.

Saw this one on Auburn's site but can't tell if it is their e-locker or not:

Any ideas?

That auburn unit is just a limited slip, not a locker. Why can't you have air lockers?

No on board air (coming soon, but not quite yet), and waaay too expensive. Cheapest one I could find was $700.

Hate to say it, but any selectable locker is going to cost more than $800 for that axle.
