Common issue for these models. Unfortunately this is usually just the beginning. You will just keep throwing money at this unless you move away from the air suspension altogether. Companies now make kits that allow you to convert from an air suspension to coils. It's an easy job and will last you through the end of the vehicle's life without issue.

When these begin to leak the only solution is to replace
SOURCE: rear air bag shock inflate to much
Mine were not inflating enough, if yours are inflating too much at least you know the compressor is working. Possibly only needs minor adjustment like mine. My mechanic only charged me $30 bucks to adjust system.(local mechanic, not a dealership)
Good luck
SOURCE: I replaced the air shocks
before you throw even more money away on that ridiculous system take a look at a shock and spring replacement for it at www.strutmasters.com.
there is no fix for them, one part after another fails.

The shocks do not set ride Hightower. The leaf springs set ride hieght in the rear. So ether the leaf springs are worn out or the shackles that hold the springs to the frame are broken (should be very obvious if they are). Most likely the rear leaf springs are the problem.
