On the maiden voyage home with my 76 PB last November, I stopped at a truck scale and weighed each wheel. Lots of variation, from a low of 1650# (LF) to high of 2000# (RF). Now I'm looking at the recommended tire pressure table from

http://gmctech.net/tires.htm#Load

and it seems to be telling me that I should inflate my left front tire to 45psi (=40 from the table + 5 safety margin for RV's per discussion) and the right to 60psi (=55+5). Is that really what I should do???
