Yes it does
The 1969 Lincoln Mark III features a front suspension with independent coil springs and a rear suspension utilizing a live axle with leaf springs, designed for a more performance-oriented ride. In contrast, the Lincoln Continental of the same era employs a more sophisticated design with an independent front suspension and a rear suspension that also utilizes a fully independent system, which provides enhanced ride quality and handling. The Mark III is built with a focus on luxury and performance, while the Continental emphasizes comfort and smoothness in driving dynamics.

The 1970 Lincoln Continental Mark III has a top speed of approximately 120 miles per hour (193 km/h). This luxury coupe was equipped with a powerful 460 cubic inch V8 engine, providing both performance and a smooth ride. Its design and engineering focused more on comfort and style rather than outright speed.
There is no air ride in the LS,..maybe your thinking Mark VIII or Towncar??
Yes, but it's not safe
Yes, if you turn the air ride switch off in a 1997 Lincoln mark 8 you can still drive the car but this should be used as a temporary measure
any Lincoln mark VII's from 1984-1992 all have the same air ride but these are the only cars that have this setup unfortunately but they do have conversion kits that run $300 to $400 hope this helps.
Do you have the factory air ride or have you converted the car to a coil over suspension?
