putting 2" spacer on 6" lift

Well my plans to stack the spacer on my lift came to a hault yesterday when i found out i could actualy fit my truck in the garage. I had about 1" to spare. I was originally going to put it back on to clear up some minor rubbing issues i had with front tires but now that i know it fits in the garage i'm not so sure what is worth more to me, it is kind of nice to be able to pull it in the garage to work on it, clean it, or get it out of the weather. What would you do

Not 100% sure about length but it looks as though it would have I only pulled it in half way so I could remove my skid plate I suppose i can measure it up and find out. My CJ 7 is in the garage now or i would just pull it in and see

I'd like to see more pics of your Truck.

I also have a Flared Scab and haven't seen many with lifts...
Planing on going with either a 4inch Rancho or a 6inch Pro Comp...
What should I do?? The catch is I tow a boat all summer sometimes as much as 60 miles away.This makes me lean towards a 4inch. Also I have 3.73 gears and plan to run 35x13.50x20's

I agree w/ leaving the spacer off and just trimming. You will wish you had if one day it starts hailing all over your truck

My vote is for you to leave the 2" spacers off, then sell them to me for a cheap price. That was it fits in the garage, and mine can be 2" taller and cant even fit in the garage now due to length anyway....
