just lay under the truck, in the rear where the springs sit there is either a spring or an airbag, pretty easy to see

That you asked or that you still don't know?

Don't be so hard on yourself.... there have been some silly questions asked on many forums... at least your question wasn't searchable.

Also, if you have Air Suspension, then you have a height adjuster button inside to raise the rear by 2".....nice to have for some extra clearance.

I've always been told the only dumb question is the one you don't ask!

thats very true, dont worry ask as much as you can, that way you can do most of your own work and not spend so much money on the mechanics
