I'm not running that setup, but clearance wise, I think you should be good, because that equates to only a 33.6" tire.

Get a budget lift to go with those tires cause a 33 or larger tire will rub. A spacer never hurts plus it gives you a little wider track.

Isn't this tire already 12" wide? I don't want a spacer if I do not need one, and I am going the the skyjacker 2"BB or FT 2" .... any thoughts?

I don't know the width of the tire in question but if they are close, like within an inch, you should be fine. You can always add them later if needed.

The new tire is two inches wider, use this calculator to get all the numbers.

Look through the Gallery, unfortunately though, most people don't tag their pics, but some do.
