What I usually do in situations like that is I still use the 2 jumbo eggs, but cut back a little in other wet ingredients, or use a bit more flour.

I don't adjust. A Jumbo isn't that much bigger than a large egg.

Use the two eggs but lessen the amount of other liquids that you are using by 2 tablespoons.

one jumbo egg is usually considered equal to two large eggs.

You will have to weigh it to get the correct volume.
Jumbo 30 oz per dozen (by weight)
Extra Large 27 oz per dozen (by weight)
Large 24 oz per dozen (by weight)
Medium 21 oz per dozen (by weight)
Small 18 oz per dozen (by weight)
Pee Wee 15 oz per dozen (by weight)
That means that the large egg averages about 2 oz. Of that 2 oz, approximately 1 oz is egg white, 2/3 oz is yolk, and the rest of it is shell.
