Shop installed rear bilstein 5100 #24-185264 on my jeep tj with 4” lift, from my understanding these shocks are for a 3” lift and are already leaking after 2k miles, are these shocks too short for my jeep and causing them to leak?

If the shocks are bottoming out (which could easily happen if they're too short) then yes, that could certainly cause them to leak.

If the shocks are bottoming out (which could easily happen if they're too long) then yes, that could certainly cause them to leak.
