Default Budget Boost Spacers....

I finally got around to getting the Old Man Emu HD rear springs to match the front HD springs I installed a few months ago. they are giving me a little under 3" of lift. While doing the install, i removed my BB. Would it be a bad thing to put back in my 2" Skyjacker boost spacers for that added height?

I figured since i would be going up higher I would need new control arms and track bars. is that the worst case scenario?

I have a bone stock X. I forgot to take measurements before doing the work, but I added a LoD stubby w/ stinger and 3/4" Daystar spacer. The fender height after the install was 34.5". I then added a XRC8 winch and the fender is now 34". If I had to guess I am probably .25-.5" under the factory height.
