Just got a tremor and noticed the right front tire was low. What pressure do y’all use for the fronts and rears for daily driving versus towing/hauling? I saw something about running lower pressures for daily driving needing forscan adjustment?

Even with the 7.3? It’s like 700lbs lighter.I run factory 60 psi in the front and 65 psi in the back. Personally I would not go below the factory front rating. I think some people forget just how heavy the truck itself is alone. I feel better having a little more pressure than too little.
Thank you. Do you get TPMS errors?
Why do you have more air in the rear in an unloaded truck? 60% of the weight is on the front axle of our trucks. I run 65 front and 60 rear.I just dropped my pressures to 52 front/ 72 rear cold in a 7.3 gasser.
this truck rides muchbetter. No more wandering. I didn’t do a chalk test. Just going by seat of pants.
Honestly that makes more sense. I assume they put so much pressure in from the factory to be ready to accept a large payload. I just dropped mine equally to get a better ride and see if the tpms would accept an 8 pound drop. I plan on getting a truck camper with a dry weight around 1800. So I prob will air back up when it goes on.Why do you have more air in the rear in an unloaded truck? 60% of the weight is on the front axle of our trucks. I run 65 front and 60 rear.
Same for me.... more weight is over the front axle in the diesels. No sense having the rear with higher pressures unless you're loaded or towing. Even with 5 extra front PSI, the front tires seem to always have more sidewall bulge than the rears.Why do you have more air in the rear in an unloaded truck? 60% of the weight is on the front axle of our trucks.
