I haven't seen a thread with all the info in one spot (maybe I just missed it), so here is everything I know or have found about these disconnects.
If your disconnect isn't working right, or you have slop in the unit where the CV attaches, the cheapest route is to rebuild it. All the info on rebuilding the disconnect can be found here:
Offroadtb.com Front Axle 4WD Disconnect
Now if for some reason you need to replace the whole thing (destroyed housing, excessive wear requiring all parts to be replaced, etc), then you have options aside from buying a used one. A year or two back ATP started making complete units. Now I see that Dorman is as well. There is a seller ADPTY on Amazon that also sells units. Not sure if they are just a reseller or actually make them (they claim they are made in the USA, while the other two don't say).
NOTE: I have not purchased any of these, so I have no input as to quality or durability of any of them. This is all for your information only, to be used as you deem fit. I'm not responsible if you buy any of these and it fails on you
