XJ Needs shocks temporarily, will ZJ shocks work?

I broke two shocks yesterday wheeling, and now I need to replace them. It came at a good time because I'm going to be doing a lift in the next month or so, so for the time being I'm just looking to put on two shocks as a temporary thing.

I don't want to keep driving without two shocks because I'm missing one on the rear and one on the front and feel like a see-saw. Are stock-length XJ/ZJ shocks interchangeable? I have a 2" BB but won't be flexing at all, this is just for street driving. I figure I'd open my chances of finding free shocks for 3 weeks by looking for ZJ shocks as well.

Anyone know if they'll work?

Go to partsamerica.com and look up the shocks for your truck then select "see other vehicles this product fits."

The fronts might. The rears will not though, atleast I don't believe so.
