Where is the switch to adjust the air suspension?

It is right on the console behind the shifter. Left side controls the 4wd low range, right side flipper controls air suspension. Look for a diagram in the owners manual

Is there an override switch so the air suspension does not move?

You can turn it off but you cannot (not supposed to) drive like that, if you pull back on the lever until it says suspension off in the display. Its a long time since I did this so I cannot rememebr how long the hold is.

You can buy the $2200 techart module,LOL
the standard height is same as your low, the low is same as the oem loading level and you can drive it that way, the high level is 20mm higher than oem. After you turn the ignition off it goes to loading level automatically. how nice

One would have thought that the factory could have come up with the novel idea of automatically going to "load" when turning off the ignition. Another gripe is that when going to the "load" setting, the truck on restarting, automatically goes back to the middle setting.

That would do little except exert more wear/tear on the PASM components and compressor, so I'm sure it was discarded for that reason.

Just turned off my suspension when putting on the snowtires. You push the lever forward for 5-10 seconds and it tells you it's deactivated. As soon as you drive it turns back on. I must admit I hadn't done that before (never read the manual- me bad) and it would go crazy when I jacked it up...

I Knew it was something like that, thanks Ski

Sorry if I'm not understanding, but what is the purpose off turning off the air suspension?

If you jack it up to change wheels and don't turn it off it goes nuts trying to self level... don't ask how I know...

The darn thing still has an obnoxious amount of suspension travel. It would have been nice if they could have "locked" the wheel position somehow so the wheel would come off the ground without having to fully extend the suspension.

I had this happen to me as well last night when puttin on my snows...I turned off the car and forgot to disable the air suspension and jacked up the front drivers side of the frame about 7-8 inches to get the tire off the ground. I turned around to get a tool and the air suspension raised the opposite side of the vehicle all the way up to off-road position which actually leveled the car out perfectly...LOL Why would you want your vehicle to self level whilst turned off nobody knows
