Keep up the good work! Prioritize based on how YOU want to prioritize, and this is YOUR Jeep. I can't wait to see the lift and tires.

It sounds like you have done nothing towards your original list. I like the camo tape on the back peice, as mine is cracked too, and i have the same seat covers and steering wheel cover. My jeep looks like like yours, but before I spent all my money on horns and stickers, I bought the 4.5" Rough Country long arm kit, and some tsl swampers (33x10.5) for 100 bucks. Saving is hard, but its worth it when you have other rigs with the same ammount of money in them and are just as capable. But, they dont have the bumping sound system and stick on walmart crap. Try to shop at walmart as little as possible for your jeep.

What do you hunt for? What do you shoot with?

about the insurance that does seem a little hi. I am a licensed insurance agent and have some questions to maybe help you out with that. You can pm the answers if you dont feel confortable putting them on the post. Are you on your parents policy, what are the coverages, and how many miles do you drive per year. If you have comp and coll what are the deductibles. Let me know and I would be happy to help with what I can or at least tell you their is nothing you can do. The thing is I know you are 16 but for a 1998 cherokee that seems a little hi. I notice in the industry that the insurance agent just does what he wants and doesnt really give you what you need.
