Alright so I ran into a curb a couple of days ago because someone ran in front of me while I was driving. I wasn't going that fast so I didn't mess up too much but it made my air suspension stop working. I've tried flipping the switch and checking the fuses and I also disconnected they battery for about 20 minutes but none of that works. I'm just trying to figure out what may be wrong and how can I fix it.

Hmm? Maybe a line came loose. The pump is under the air box

Yea I found that out and my battery tray is there so I'm going to check it later today and see if that does anything

If the rear suspension received a jolt, maybe the linkage for the ride height sensor popped off.

Where is that located at? I think I saw that it was near the exhaust on the driver side

It connects between the Watts link and the axle housing, on the driver's side.

Anyone have a picture of what this looks like under here? I swear I've climbed under this car a couple of times and I have no idea what I'm looking for. Maybe my car is sitting too low? Or I need to take the tire off

The first photo (not the drawings) is one end of the ride-height sensor linkage.

I figured it out it was the arm thing that rotates. I referenced my other marauder and figured it out. Now there is a little black bolt or tab that holds the arm on the sensor but mine is gone. Any idea where I can find one at? Thanks a lot though rf overload that's exactly what it was what you said.

Or you can buy a new sensor w/linkage at tascaparts or your favourite parts supplier.
