My Chevy C is level without air in the bags so admittedly the back of my C raises an inch or two when I put 40+ pounds of air in them, however taking the jarring our of the ride means less wear and tear on the unit. I suspect this would be the same for the Fords as well.
Yep, same here, tho' on a 4x4 Silverado p/u chassis. What I noticed is that there's more daylight showing thru at the ends of the short but thick lower leaf with air in the bags.... 15-25 psi for me. It took a lot of the impact out of rear axle bumps. I did have to install better shocks (Rancho 9000's) to stop the extra bouncy-bounce from the air bags.
