How much drop should I look for a receiver to have with 5" lift and 35s?

4" maybe? I just want to pull a small trailer with another fourwheeler on.

Measure the distance from the tongue of your trailer to the ground when the trailor is level. Measure the distance from your hitch receiver to the ground. The difference is how much drop you need.

Where is that link to the relay upgrade for the headlights to make them shine brighter and not catch your headlight swtich on fire?

Worked on firewood a bit more today down by the creek, across the creek was a little deer, didn't seem to care we were there, he stayed around quite a bit...

Anywho, I think it could take around 5 cords of wood to heat this place enough to get through the winter, and at that rate we'd log ourselves out of wood in a few years time.

The majority of the largest trees on the property are Poplar, which burn great and hot when dry, but they don't last real long.

Old Ash tree we might drop tomorrow....

Good times...
