Not that I have a 2 door but a shock is a shock in my opinion.You would probably want a nice on road riding jeep. My opinion, go with the 9000's or the Old Man Emu I mentioned.

I have the OME shocks and love the ride on and off road. If I had to choose another shock it would be the 9000's due to the adjustable settings.

I'm running Rusty's 200 series shocks with their 3.25" springs. Rides great and no sagging either.

I have these shocks but I haven't mounted them yet. I chose these shocks for their length. I'm running Metalcloak 2.5 springs on my 2 door. The front shocks are going to take some work to make them work with my 1" bumpstops. If your running 3" bumpstops you should be fine.

I'm very happy with my Fox 2.0's. It doesn't ride like a Benz but I like them.
