I need to travel out of US in a couple of days. But I can't find my conditional Green card. The conditional GC expired 2 years ago but I have the extension letter as my petition for removal of conditions is still processing. 

Would I be able to get back into the US, or will I have any trouble?

You must have both the expired green card and the extension letter

Trouble 

Immigration journey is not: fast, for the faint at heart, easy, cheap, for the impatient nor right away. If more than 50% of this applies to you, best get off the bus.

You'll be stuck outside of the US. Do not attempt. Instead, file I-90 if you lost your GC (search everywhere thoroughly though before you do it). With I-90 you can get I-551 stamp in passport, and travel with that.

Agreed. This wont happen before two days time.. So if you cannot locate the GC, you will need to postpone the travel. 
 

Strong incentive to have another really really good look….  Have you asked your mom to look ?? 🤣
