welcome to RF. There is always oem, but i can't remember if aftermarket ones are being made yet for the newer rear end.

Buy an oem posi unit for the 2011+ rear end. Or swap in a 09-12 rear end with a posi in it

There is not an aftermarket LSD unit yet for the ZF rear axle. Your only option is to grab an OEM unit.

so i don't have to buy the whole rear end i can just buy the unit to fit the one already?

Maybe get in touch with a good local salvage yard, they should be able to put out a notice for a posi unit from a wrecked truck.
