Perhaps any charger with 13.8V and a current limit would do for LiFePO4. 

I use batteryspace.com 13V 20 AH battery that costs just $128. Charging from
13.7 20Ah switching power supply. Seems to charge really well.

Batteryspace recommends their own charger for LiFePO4 batteries. It should
have max voltage of 4 x 3.7V=14.4V but I measured it at 18V no load. Seems
even 18V does little harm as otherwise they would have too many returns.
