Thanks for the info on pirate. I haven’t been on there in quite awhile.
Is the new forum just as brutal for “stupid” questions?

Most Jeep Forums are all about a bunch of like minded guys who back slap and high five anyone agreeing with or copying what they do. None of them are open to renegades doing anything but the status quo..... hence so many modified Jeeps look like clones of the rest of them. Some are kind of polite about it, some are downright rude.
This forum which has everything on it might be one of the best. But if you want to crawl up a waterfall on 35s..... the rest are good choices. Define what you want to do and go where that is the theme.
Overlanding, exploring, expeditions, camping, travelling with lots of gear for days on end with limited options to refuel... stay here.
Wrangler TJ Forum was a favourite of mine but I'm past that now.

Classic Jeeps really don't have issues and the issues you quoted with Dans JT have no solutions yet, at least not a solution for a home fix or parts you can carry for a field fix. Anything new is always a crap shoot for gremlins, anything old has likely already had the gremlins fixed.We're planning to buy a recent Wrangler for travel in Canada this year and next, and it would be really useful to learn from others what other "classic Jeep issues" to expect, rather than learning the hard way.

Hi: we;ve been in Vancouver for two weeks and have bought a LWB JK Wrangler and built in a bed frame. More work when we get back to Vancouver after 2 weeks in Montréal and another two weeks in Nova Scotia - put in a mattress and add a few items - should take a few days. After that we plan time in BC, Yukon, NWT, and probably Alberta, then back to Vancouver. We'll leave the vehicle over the winter and return next year for another 5 or 6 months, perhaps adding time in Alaska and elsewhere in the USA, depending on circumstances.Off topic but where are you planning to go in Canada?
