The compressor for the air suspension in the back of our 98 Windstar Limited needs to be replaced. I am told that Ford no longer manufactures this part. Does anyone know whether the same compressor was also used in another Ford model? I find it hard to believe that Ford would have desgned and used the compressor in just the Windstar Limited, as very of these of these were sold. Ford probably used the same compressor in another model also. I would be especially grateful if you have diagrams or photos showing the comparable compressor in another model Ford.
Alternatively, perhaps someone might be able to suggest a good quality after market manufacturer for the compressor.
Thanks to all who are able to help!

Looks like I forgot to post an update for future readers of this thread. Well, I couldn't find ANYONE offering or manufacturing new air ride compressors for 98 Windstars. The next best choice was to get mine rebuilt. Then, sooner or later, the bags for the air suspension would begin to leak, if they haven't already. Bottom line, it was better for me to convert to conventional coil springs and shocks. I opted for variable rate coil springs for the added resistance with the heavier loads. Total Cost Can. $ 800 including labour.
