Default RE vs RC Lift

I can't decide. I am thinking about either the 4" RC or the 3.5" RE lift. I found the RE on sale including free shocks pricing these almost the same. I am probably going with 31's so any input or suggestions are welcome.

Im out here in Cali and everybody runs RE.Personally I think its over rated (thats just my opinion).Go with the RC 4.5 lift I have run there stuff before and loved it.I have the OME lift on mine now and love it.I also had a much bigger budget this time around though.

I ran RE on my ZJ and RC on my XJ..

If the price wasn't a option I'd have gone RE on my XJ.

Great quality, just seems to be abit more over built.

But there is nothing wrong with eh RC either. Every time they release a new product they seem to get better..

I love my RE 3.5 lift and it sits just at 4.25" and that's after a few months of settling. My one suggestion is go with either some nice Mono tube shocks or something like Bilsteins. Shocks are going to make the ride not the lift.
