reducing tire pressure when unloaded
Mostly, we drive our truck unloaded, since it's our everyday beater as well. Our truck is a Ram 2500 reg cab 4X4. How low can I safely lower the air pressure to improve the ride for my arthritic wife?

Top row is for the newer RAM Dually trucks. 35psi will give 1,570# of carrying capacity per rear tire times 4 is 6,280# capacity for the rear axle. My rear axle weighs no more than 4k without RV. I can still load a 2k in the bed with room to spare.
YES the ride vastly improves when lowering for an unloaded to lightly loaded truck. 4wd trucks keep the fronts at 80psi!!!
No help for a 2500 SRW. No idea where you come up with 80 psi front. I have to believe his truck would be 60 psi front
I run mine as recommended on the door pillar 60 psi front , ALL the time.
