How much air do you guys put in your trailer tires, when hauling your 'N' tractor? TIA

Like Stumpy said, I usually use the pressure listed on the tire sidewall as maximum. If I recall correctly mine are around 40 or 42 lbs.
Good Luck, Lee

Sidewall pressure. Tires are rated to carry there max weight at max press. Always check press. before the tire is worked(hot). The air will expand as a loaded trailer is towed down the road. Low tire press can overheat the tire and cause a blowout. This is the leading cause of truck tire failure, not the bad rap most people give to recaps.

Thanks Guys! Followed suggestions! Hauled a Ford 4000 out of mountainous winding roads. Fifty mile run. No problems!
