Thanks for the ideas.
First, I will be inflating the tires all to the right PSI.
I will move the new rear tires to the front.
That will be a free way to rule out the front tire balance.
But, this will require the XJ to be lifted off all 4 wheels.
That means buying 2 more jackstands for another $100 that I may never use again.
It might be easier to just have a shop swap the wheels.

You should be running proper PSI in your tires anyways, LMAO
A front tire balance is the least of your worries. Balancing is also inexpensive.
Your front end is ****. A balance won't make this go away. Replace worn components. Balance your tires. Get an alignment. All at a shop.
Problem solved.

Take a look at your tires the tube might have popped or have been punctured making the tire swell aka making a bump .
Another culprit may be if you've been parking on asphalt it could just have a flat spot. Depending on how far you drive it it should work it's way out.
