What the title says. 78 k10 stepside passenger side sag, about 1.5 inches. It,s noticeable when looking at the truck from the front. here is my question. The sprinngs are approx. 52" and I,m planning to replace them. Can i install 56" springs, and if so, hou muck lift would i actually gain?

56" springs won't gain any height
Just more flex

New springs should cure the sag unless it's a twisted frame issue

just curious are you measuring to the body or to the frame? body pads will give that affect.

Ground to body. Now that you mention it, i think i will measure ground to frame today.If it's level to the frame, and after I get my frame patch in, i should be gtg when i put in my 4" Roughcountry lift? Any advice as far as that goes?

buy new bolts and bushings
Just cut the old bolts with a sawzall
Way faster than trying to fool with the old bolts
