I've been looking for them locally and have found prices ranging from $1500 to $2000 for a non-elocked axle. Elocked axles in this area are usually $3000+.
Since I plan to regear anyway I plan to bite the bullet sometime next year and buy a used, complete non-elocked 8.2 then do a 4.56 regear with front and rear Harrop elockers. It's not drastically more than keeping the OEM elocker, and the Harrop should be more reliable with better engagement.
Another option, as NJGX mentioned, is to get a new Toyota 8.2 housing (~$1K from my local dealer) and a new elocker 3rd member (~$2K-3K but seems variable - Partsoq has them), then re-use your existing axles shafts and brakes. However this option means you can't sell your 8" as a complete unit, which I would like to do to recover some of the cost of the upgrade.
Any way you slice it the 8.2 is a $$$$$$ upgrade.
