I also purchased the RR 2.25" lift and still have the poly spacers in place after almost 4 years off using them. I do so pretty heavy off roading and they have not let me down yet.

thanks for the feedback everyone. Knappster i was wondering which of the three RR packages you have concerning shocks.
I ordered the shocks with my kit, I installed my lift almost as soon as I purchased the Commander so I really cannot tell you if the ride changed or not but I like the ride with the lift and shocks. I also have heard that the Bilstins are better shocks so you might want to consider that option too.

I had the Commander about 10k miles stock before the first lift. The standard RR shocks made the vehicle a little firmer - just a bit, but made a nice difference in handling since the ride was not so soft. When I changed out, I could see that the RR shocks extended longer than stock - supporting their claim that you might bottom out the stock shocks when off roading. Would be good to hear some feedback on the RC lift.

I don't see the difference between the two lifts. There both spacer lifts and you can replace your shocks when installing either one. It should come down to price I would I think just get the cheapest one. I'm assuming the RR lift levels out the XK as the RC lift does.
