It's a question of what should the rear tire pressure be and I'm wondering what you run your dually at. The camper should be around 4-5k pounds. I'm planning to install Crossfire Equalization and need a number...psi.
RAM said 65 psi
Tire manufacture,Nexen Roadian,said 80 psi
Both said 80 psi for the front.
Who's correct?
As you can see from dispute, you might want to ride on different pressures depends on load, so you will not have easy answer.
But coming to choosing Crossfire, I used them in the past (and still have them in garage) and know you have to buy them with factory preset for the gauge.
So I'd suggest buying the set for lowest pressure you might use aka 65psi as when you buy higher set and lower pressure, the gauge will constantly show in red.
Still I would recommend using TPMS on top of Crossfire as even they have valve system, I lost a good tire with it when slow leak did not shut off flow from good tire and by the time I noticed it, both tires were beaten up.
With cost of tires - the cost of adding TPMS can pay itself in single incident.
