The hitch will not interfere with the air ride system in your 2004 Lincoln Town Car. What you do need to be aware of is the vehicle towing capacity. These numbers will be in your vehicle owner manual. The air ride system will handle whatever the vehicle can. If these capacities are less than 3,000 gross towing weight or 350 pounds tongue weight, it would not be safe to tow your boat with the Town Car.
