OK so I currently have a 4 inch lift with pro comp springs. Ride sucks really bad. I am buying new TC springs all the way around. Do I need 52" or 56" springs in rear? I know it came with stock 52 inch springs but that was at stock height.
 
all K5's come with 52 rears, whether stock or a lift spring...


one reason your ride is crappy is due to lift springs in the back.. why not go shackle flip? you can easily install a stock 56 spring in the back at that time... it'll ride like a caddy as opposed to a dump truck...
 
rear flip kit and 4 or 5 leaf + overload stock replacement leafs. will ride much better than lift springs.

5 leaf + overload i have used in the past with flip kit works good rides good. http://stengelbros.3dcartstores.com/22-403_p_3163.html

4 leaf + overload smother ride little more rear saggy butt but cost more than 5 leafs. http://stengelbros.3dcartstores.com/22-909_p_2476.html
