    Tire pressure. Stock 2500 Tradesman 6.4L 8' box 4x4 OEM Firestones. door pressure states max 60 front and 65 rear. Seems the dealer and others, want to say bump it up to in the mid to high 70s while towing. I am having a hard time coming to grips with that. Pretty sure if that were true...

    you may be correct sir. This is a measuring device. It is 7" tall. This is unhooked stance. There is 10" from top of tire to bottom of wheel well. Just went out and measured it. this is hitched up and ready to roll. so, I am only sagging about 2.5"

    How much sag before you need airbags?

    Finally got everything setup and hooked up for towing my 5th wheel. Seems I have about 5 inches of sag when hooked up. I am pretty much empty and expect another 1200-1500 lbs in the RV. Pulled the rig to a temp storage lot while I get everything setup. Pulled pretty well and felt Ok while...

    These numbers are not matching up...

    Oh, and if you are curious..... I got this truck for the sole purpose of turning a toy hauler RV into a work from home office. Turning the garage into a..... not sure what you would call it, but there will be 7-8 monitors, 3 computers, a test/gun/work/ bench. I may even put in a 9mm...

    very true.

    These numbers are not matching up...

    Not true, weight alone does not determine private or commercial. Weight just determines a Class of license. Up until about 5 or 6 years ago (I think) in Texas, I could haul a combo (toter home and 50' race trailer) with nothing more than a Class C. That thing grossed out at about 85K to 90K...
