So I am now to the point where i need to replace the rear suspension. Just wondering what all i need to get as these cars aparently have air-ride. So other than the shock what else would i need

What do you think you need to replace? The shock has both the leveling and a gas shock in it. You'll need Monroe MA822 shocks, they come in boxes of 2. The only things in the rear suspension are the shock, spring, sway bar & end-links and the control arm, and none of the control arm bushings are replaceable. The only parts that wear really are the sway-bar endlinks, the sway bar bushings, the shocks and the shock mounts.

I measured 28” at all four wheel wells… Before. 160,000 miles 2002 year. SE
After Monroe 171685 Quick-Strut Complete Strut Assembly in front; With a 2’ carpenter level for alignment… I was nearly 29.5” in the front and 28 in the rear...
After the New rear Monroe MA822 Max-Air - Air Shock Absorber and some circular driving in both directions…and other anti lock brake testing… Ha!!! I was 28.5 in rear and 29.25 in front…
What are other people finding for measurements at wheel wells????
