Expert Reply:
The Ride Rite Kit you would have installed on your 2006 Lincoln Mark LT would be our part # F2350.
The amount of air pressure you will need will require you to do a bit of trial and error. I would recommend you load truck up and then keep inflating the bags till the suspension sits as level as it does when unloaded. That will be the ideal pressure for all situations.
You always want to keep a minimum of 5 psi in the bags to prevent them from prematurely wearing out. This ensure the bags maintain the proper shape at all times.
