Default Lift/alignment question

So within the next day or two i plan on installing my 2 inch BB lift on top of my existing 3 inch lift. After putting on the shackles and spacers will i need to get an alignment?

If it does mess up the alignment is it okay to still drive it for a few days until i get the alignment done?

moving track bar back, getting tj brake lines, long arms this summer (stock arms for probably a month), and im going to see how it rides with out an sye first. hopefully with the TC drop i have on, and the angle the shackles create, it will be okay.
