My friend runs 75-80psi in fronts/rears on his '02 dually and suggested I do the same when pulling a trailer but the factory spec say 75 in the front and 60 in the rear of my '07 dually. Any higher than 60psi in the rear of my dually seems like a hard ride.

I always tow with what the door decal says, which is 75 front, 65 rear, IIRC. I used to lower the fronts to 65 when not towing. But I don't get the harsh ride on the front end since I swapped the springs to a softer set so I just keep them up all the time now. My GN trailer is over 15,000# and I the rears don't squat when loaded.

We are getting 3-5 inches on Sunday. I wanted to check the bearings on the camper but I guess that will have to wait.

Winter weight is out, canopy aside, ready for picking up the new 5er in a few weeks. 3m wrap done also, paint takes a beating up here. They call it sanding the roads but it's really gravelling. No idea how I got away without changing the windshield. The wife's SUV too. Got lucky.

Clear wrap, front and rear fenders, lower panels on doors, head lights, front bumper, bumper end caps, hood, mirrors, pillars between windshield and doors, rear bumper ends, works pretty good. If it flakes after a while I just get the guy to come out and put new 3M on it, the wife's suv is covered in it, saves the paint and resale for sure
