Default Rubicon coils on X model

I know this is possible. I have the coils and want to put them on a friends 2-door X model. He has stock shocks. What other parts might he need to make this swap work?

Will the stock X shocks work without adaptors dus to the slight height increase from the coils?

you asked me a little to late. just put 4dr rubi springs and shocks on my 2dr x but i didn't think to measure the difference in shocks as i assumed they were the same but looks like i'm wrong. do you only have the coils and not the shocks?

Yes, only the coils would go on the 2-door. I believe the stock sway bar links would still work. I believe the coils will add some lift height but the articulation would still be limited by the stock shocks.
