I am driving 98 Eddie Bauer V8 5.0L AWD. How do I know whether I have 'Automatic Ride Control (ARC)'?
 






Open the back access panel where the Jack is and look for the ARC Off/On switch.

Another way is to do a System Check through Message Center and see if it says "Air Ride System Ok"
 






I do remember that the message center doesn't show 'Air ride system OK'. So it indicates that my truck doesn't have it. Thank you for the help!
 






Just for thread info if someone searches or if you need to verify-

This is what the switch looks like. (in my 2000 XLT at least) Rear driver storage compartment...
