I wasnt aware there was an aftermarket option for such a thing.
Honestly, rebuilding your factory system to work properly is not that tough. Probably WAY cheaper too. That is, IF there is an aftermarket system.

Get the OEM ones
I did the maintenance of the hubs once.
But since i couldn't get the switch back from being frozen, it was worthless.
The OEM are getting cheaper and cheaper.
About 100 bucks for a pair now.
And it is 3 minute job to change those.
So I would go for that.
I did 7 years ago.
Everything 4WD working since.

I'm talking about the auto locking 4WD hubs, not the axle hubs.

Sure, I am German living in Germany, so for me it is difficult to have access to a variety of parts, if at all.
But Ebay usually helps a lot.
Which I used as mentioned years ago.
Something like this:
