I know it will fail eventually and have parts ready to go when it does. The 1.5 is also a guesstimate. About to change to a set of AST 5200's so the height could change soon.

True, used axles are cheap to buy ($50 to $150).
Point is, when the axle pops, it can damage other parts attached to it (wheel hubs and parts in your differential.) In my case, the second time I lost an axle it also took my ring & pinion (final drive.) Total cost on that was $1400.
