re: At how many years prior to retirement do you...

In my eyes there are two types in investments... fixed income investments (bonds) and rising income investments (stocks).
I don’t want to carry many fixed income investments into a world where costs are rising every year because my purchasing power erodes... Especially with the low rates being paid on fixed income today.
Keeping 18 months cash reserve plus 10k cash for each year retired on hand and 100% equity portfolio focused on companies that grow their dividends. I also know how crazy this strategy sounds but I’m fine with the ups and downs.
