Question Crazzzyyyy

The craziest thing happened to me this morning it was like seeing a UFO and i kind of feel weird even posting this because it was so bazaar... i went out and i could of sworn my rear was dropped and there was about 1 or 2 fingers able to fit between tire and well it was insane standing up i could see half of the roof perfectly... i looked under the car and could see no change or anything broken so i went to put my key in and start the car thinking i was going to see my cluster light up like a X-mas tree but there was nothing so i went to look back at the back and it was normal i felt no rise or anything and the front was fine it was INSANNNEEE dose any one know why this would happen its a 2000 4.4 so i don't think it has air ride

Edited grammar 6:07 central time

Sorry Cold One but I read your post 3 times and I still don't know what you are trying to say. Punctuation, grammar and spelling - I need at least one of the three to make my tired old brain comprehend.

All 4.4i has rear self-leveling air springs which can vary the rear ride height. Have someone check it out, but chances are it was just a fluke. However, if you do get a warning light, get it checked. Maybe you have leak in the rear air springs.

You are correct that in the model year 2000, there is no ride-height adjustment, but all 4.4i come with rear air springs.

One of the air springs may have a tiny leak. and over night it lost all its air and then when you started it the compessore pumped it back up
