M2 Stepper Motor alternatives

While I await the arrival of my maslow4, I am still using the M2. With that being said, I run my machine pretty hard. I have not had any issues until the past couple of days where the sled would start acting erratic while in the middle of a cut. I am 99% sure the stepper is going bad as it gets very hot in comparison to the other one. Is there a source other than Maker Make to buy replacement steppers? Perhaps upgraded steppers that can handle more use, heaving loads etc? Or am I stuck with what I get from maker made?

what stepper did they use? The stepper part number has all sorts of details
about it, but without knowing what they shipped, you would have to wait for them
