I've put about 40k miles on the truck since then and probably close to 100 4x4 boosted launches.
I've heard a few bad things about the posi lock cables and it's just one more thing to worry about. I like the simplicity of having 4wd the instant I pull the lever. A one piece front shaft conversion has crossed my mind but I'm not gonna fix what isn't broken.
I think you'll be fine with just a one piece shaft or just locking the collar with a bolt, I wouldn't over think it.

Can you post a picture of this bolt system you are using?

Why not just disconnect the vacuum switch on the t-case, and run a vacuum line directly to the CAD to keep it engaged all the time? Its been working in my truck for the last 6 or 7 years now.

Sorry to drag off topic but is the front driveshaft double joint rebuildable at the transfer case?

Yes.
A good service manual will walk you through the procedure for a rebuild.
