Default bad air suspension ?

my 90LS has air suspension. The height remains constant,doesnt drop or leak air etc. however the struts seem as if they require replacement. very bumpy over rides etc and definitely give the feel of how worn out struts do. Question is, with no air leaks from the air suspension, could the strut still be bad ? what's a good check to ensure that the air struts are working properly and don't require a change ?
thanks in advance.

Please describe "Bumpy" and "feel like bad struts do" Is it stiff or bouncy over bumps?

every bump feels like i went over a big pot hole or something. the trac light keeps coming on because of the instable situation of the rear wheels.
