How do I find...

What chassis type I have, plus other information? (1999, Coachmen Mirada 34MS, Ford V10 motor)
I have LOTS of documentation, but it all seems to be for the coach, there is little for the chassis. I do know I have air suspension at the back at least, because there are manuals for that and I can see them. All of the electrical diagrams are for a 2004 model which has a different floor plan. Can I still get electrical diagrams for the 1999?

As always I await the combined power of the site to help me out. Many thanks in advance, from New Zealand.

Thanks folk - I do indeed have a Ford f53 chassis. Next question, I have airbags at the back, that are currently inflated to 11.5 psi. The manual says 50 - 70 psi, not below 10 psi. The previous owner said that when he pumped them up in the states, the ride was too hard, so he let pressure out of them. My question is what should they be set at, and what difference will it make to my ride?
Many thanks in advance for your help,
