    What do I need to run 35s on a 2005 LJ non-Rubicon?

    So you want to run 35" tires on your TJ?

    Farm Jack Storage

    If you are looking for something with a more sturdy base, these are a great jack to use. https://www.summitracing.com/parts/pwb-640912?seid=srese1&gclid=Cj0KCQiA0eOPBhCGARIsAFIwTs4SoN2WLblAYFkrKpRJ5ZstkaJ4QflGLdYh7hBxlGDZyKaLrdkmPWMaAtdwEALw_wcB

    Can I fit Rubicon Dana 44 axles in my TJ?

    If the axles are stock, and have electronic lockers, then they are from a JK and will not bolt right in. If they are actually air lockers, then they are from a TJ and will bolt right in, but you might need new driveshafts (someone more knowledgeable will chime in for that).

    Is it getting cold there?

    It hasn't really gotten too cold here yet. -16°C (3°F) right now, which is about the coldest it's been yet.

    Should I fix my head gasket or sell my Jeep?

    The heater core is a fairly time consuming job, which is why mine has been leaking for 5+ years lol. The water pump and head gasket are pretty straight forward. Can you do the work yourself? If not, have any buddies that would give you a hand?

    Manual Transmission weird issue

    A few times when it's been colder out (-10 and colder), when I've started the Jeep to warm it up, I'd put the transfer case in neutral and the trans in gear, and it would be easier to shift when I'd get in it and go to leave.

    Flame red TJ or Raptor Coat (original versus functional)

    Doing a color change so it doesn't look like poo takes a ton of work.

    Drones

    I bought a DJI Mini 2 a few weeks back, and I'm really enjoying this tiny little drone! For the size and cost, I'm really impressed with it.

    Used Warn M8000 or new Warn VR 8?

    Not your intention, but the 8274 does that all on its own lol. My 8274 was built in 1985 and still has the original motor, and it's still going strong. I was built in 1982, and it's aging better than I am! :ROFLMAO:
