Ford Air Ride Rear Suspension Down Diagnosis & Fix ... why theair ride compressor is not turning on and pumping up the air ridesuspension on your truck. ...

That is not a question you ask on the internet, & no one has any diagrams, unless they own the same vehicle & have purchased factory manuals
You ask a dealer by giving the parts dept your VIN #
If your converting from air to conventional suspension, then you ask the parts suppliers that sell the new parts your going to use to replace the air shocks/struts
The air bags commonly go bad on these trucks as well as the Expeditions. They are called Air Springs. I sell better quality ones than those sold at auto part stores and they are also a bit cheaper than dealer parts. But either way the problem is you have bad air springs.
I have a 2000 Lincoln Town car, had the same problem, it was the rear air suspension/shocks. They are air bags basically that levels your car and it cost about $300.00 for each at the dealer for parts and install but it also has its own motor that inflates and deflates these air bags and I also had to replace that and that cost over $400.00 installed at the dealer.
Have a similar problem... My 2003 Lincoln Navigator was manufactured May 22, 2003 so it's the late model that came with the Intec 5.4 Liter DOHC V-8 (not the Triton engine).
I replaced the two front ride height sensors (one for each air strut) and replaced the one rear ride height sensor that controls the ride height for BOTH rear air struts. (Yours may have one ride height sensor for each of the rear air struts.) That solved the problem for a few months during the warm months, until the weather started cooling off. Then back to the same issue.
The front passenger air strut started releasing air from the solenoid (air block) making a "hissing sound." Replaced BOTH front air strut solenoids (connected at the top of each air strut). That also resolved the problem for a few days. After going all around the world, I discovered it's the Air Ride Control Module (ASM) that was the problem all along.
My suggestion to you and all the other folks leaving questions on this board about collapsed air suspension systems in luxury cars is to fix that one by replacing it with a real spring and shock system which you can buy at www.strutmasters.com if it is economically feasible, then sell it and avoid air suspensions systems like the plague. There are legions of old 70s Citroens still sitting idle 30 years later on collapsed air suspensions systems in garages and barns all over the country which cars the buyers can't let go because they cost so damn much. Get a coleman air mattress and use it every day, see how long it really lasts.
If you mean as a substitute for the Air ride there are conversion kits. Just look in your Browser and search for terms like "Lincoln Air ride conversions", "Rear spring kits for Navigators", and so on.
There are also shocks with Booster springs which can increase load capacity.
In addition, several companies do repair the Rubber bags and you can get what you need from Salvage yards to put your ride back to original shape.
On some of the cars with Air ride, I believe it was $300 minimum for a conversion, for just the coiled shocks, I believe $120 a pair. Anything for a Lincoln Logo you will pay more and often. I have not used any of these kits, so I can not say how good they are or what the Install price is. The Web is the best place to price out these parts.
First thing is why would you want to and then next is make sure the air ride is turned off. At the top of the air springs there a valve you will have to removed the line off of the valve and then remove the valve from the air springs, then you can remove it. Hope this helps
there is an air ride suspension in that vehicle.that is what sets the height.in the rear cargo area on the left side there is a cover.open it.there is an air ride switch.make sure it is on.there is a compressor as well check the fuse is ok.
