Can i lift a 2001 lincoln navigator with air ride suspension?
mgw1599 asked:
I was curious if there was a air ride suspension kit that i could purchase that would replace the existing one and add some needed height, or maybe some type of spacer kit? Would any type of body lift work? Any or all help would be greatly apperciated.

i think you would have to replace the suspension all together..

you can lift it,but you lose the airbags with a suspension lift….I dont recommend this,but it’s your ride…with the costs of it you might look into a hydraulic system….they’re pretty tight….

It is possible because i have seen kits for escalades… a modified one of those might work.

you can get a couple extra inches just by adjusting your height sensor. im not sure on navigators but on other lincolns there are three holes on the sensor, it should be in the middle hole, move it down to the bottom hole and that should trick the computer into thinking they are low and put more air in them thus raising the truck. but as far as i know there are no lift kits for these trucks. but that does not mean they are not out there

Yes you can. You might have to replace the stock air bags with springs, or go with an aftermarket air bag system that will allow you to adjust your suspension height.

Convert to regular shocks. The air ride suspension is a pain-in-the-neck to deal with, and all Lincolns’ seem to fail at one time or another. Very expensive to fix.

Here is a simple quick way to get it up some if you weigh it down and start it up it will air up quite a ways up because of the added weight then turn the air suspension off and remove the weight and the truck will go up and stay up.

Rear suspension has a height sensor, if you shorten the rod, by moving the sensor lower the vechile will get higher.
If you try this turn the suspension off before
