Default 2 door vs 4 door

I plan to buy a 2 door xj when I get done with my wifes 4 door and I was woundering if the doors on the 2 door are the same as the 4 door.

Agreed they are longer...

And for what it is worth.. Comanche doors fit a 4 door Cherokee... not a 2 door.

Are you referring to the door length being the same? Because the doors on a 2 door are much longer than those on a 4 door. Im guessing your talking about the overall length of the jeep because that is the same whether its a 2 door or a 4 door.
