Front Shock
What's the current opinion on front shocks for an xj with 2" lift? 80 percent on road, 20 percent forest roads...

Like should you Run Front Shocks? 80% on Road, YES
Do you need new shocks with a 2" lift, not really.

What I meant was I spend a majority of the time on road and when off road it is forest paths. Nothing crazy.

Should I feel bad that I just sold a set for $100?

All good then..
Re OP question... If you are leaving the swaybar connected when offroad. Stock length will be fine. If you are worried about bottoming the shocks, slip a hockey puck inside the coils. With swaybar inplace you will be unlikely to fully extend the shock, unless both wheels are off the ground.
