Try to get to the junkyard and find one from a car. Get the ABS relay though as it has lesser of a chance to be bad and its identical to the air compressor relay. Go to a u-pull because its a small enough part to just stick in your pocket.

On the driver's side of the car, behind the wheel well, you'll see the ABS unit. The relay used for the ABS is identical to the one on the air ride. Remove the fender liner, and you'll see it towards the front of the driver's wheel well.

If you're in a pinch, you can use it to get your car off the ground, foregoing ABS and traction control until you get a replacement part.
