Call up a shop like Rusty's and they'll tell you the numbers.Heck you can order them from him if you don't want to look them up.
If you know everything with your buggy then why are you asking a question about shocks on a xj? You do know that you can relocate shock mounts on a xj to run shorter shocks. Also lift hieght has little to do with shock lenth shock lenth has more to do with when bumpstops hit and tires rub

I have a Full Traction 6" lift. When I got shocks I called Summit and they looked up Bilstiens for a 6" lift. I think they are too long, and only offer a couple inches of uptravel. I think they would work fine for a 7-8" lift.

Here is a link for future reference for an XJ around the 8" height.
This is for our monotube shock, by the way.

Biggest question is.... Why the hell do you have 8" of lift? What are u running 42" tires? Good lord...
The answer to your question is:
The proper shock, is whichever shock FITS! That's pretty much common sense man. C'mon
They make these things called measuring tapes.

Want the wrong shock? OK, go look at a chart and buy whatever it says to buy.
Want the right shock? Measure your damn jeep. That's the "pirate answer" for a reason, it's because that's how you get the best results.
