Replacing dryer on air suspension

I realize my earlier post about replacing a hose was almost impossible. Since being rear ended and not having much money I've been trying not to shove alot of money out until my settlement. The air suspension works fine but the accident caused the alternator to go bad. When the alternator was replaced, what I call the nipple, it was cut. After searching for the unit we found out that its a dealer only part. Can anybody give me some advice on how to replace it? The dealership called it a dryer and its a separate piece that attaches to the air suspension unit. Any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated because I could only afford the part and not the labor. Thanks

Don't forget the local salvage yard too.
Find others that are compatible, like Crown vic, Mercury Marquis, and Lincoln Town car.
If you are early enough, you might even find some new air springs.
