I need some input on the +'s and -'s of a lift kit, im ready to get the thing, but the people controling the insurance (AKA parents) arent so intrested and thinks its a waste. Please, any input will be greatly appreciated and used in convienceing my elders.
back when i had this problem i just ordered the lift (3" black diamond)...installed it at a friends house and came home...my parents didnt notice for almost a week when my mom had to borrow it

If you plan to wheel then it's a possitive (if done right): @ about 3.5" of lift my XJ handled better then stock, but I had: full leaf packs, longer control arms, adjustable track bar, quick disconnects (which gave me proper length front swaybar links when connected), better shocks.
If you are doing it for the show then it's a negative.
Incorrect. They are only worth what someone will pay for them. I, for one, would be willing to pay MORE for something unmolested and well taken care of.

And I would pay more for one that already has done to it what I would do anyway. So there ya have it.
I would really say that if your not ready to take over the insurance payments listen to your elders. There really is plenty of time to play later. Just think of what you could do if you just keep saving your money for now and do what you want with it when the time comes!

pros: It's a ton of fun and a great hobby. You learn great skills on how to fix things, as well as how to manage your money for future projects.
cons: set a budget...then DOUBLE it because that's how much you'll end up spending at least. It is expensive, and the more you wheel it, the harder you wheel it, the more $$ you spend fixing broken stuff or improving it. It is very addicting.

'Wheel it stock and when they complain about the rocker panels bashed in so the doors wont close, the t'case split open and the tow-truck fees, just tell them none of it would have happened if it had some more ground clearance.
I would go with tow points first. Cause a lift will just help you get stuck worse cause you'll go into worse stuff. So why not get the tow points out of the way first. Then after you have some experiance, go with a lift that will best fit your wheeling. Cause after you've done some wheeling, you'll better know what size tires and such you'd be most happy with.
