Default Best shocks for a 2 inch lift ?

Well as the title says, just wondering what would be the best shock to go with for a 2 inch lift my current shocks are toast lol . . . More concerned about ride than I am about off road ability, it's my DD and rarely see 's anything but pavement.

2000 XJ BTW

Thanks in advance guys

pick up a set of jk stock take-off shocks theyre good for about 2'' on xj's

you just have to swap the bar bins for the front shocks and press the metal sleeves out of the rear
ive got a set of these your welcome too if you want 'em


or you could pick up some old man emu 2'' shocks. they specialize in smaller lifts and have a great rep for ride and quality
