Bruce,

I've got passenger minivan tires on my Greenbrier and I keep all four at 35 p.s.i.

Bruce, the 'right' tire pressure for your Rampside may not necessarily 
be the same as the tire pressure I use on my Rampside, but the 
oft-recommended 10-psi difference front-to-rear applies to Corvair cars, 
not the truck and vans.  I happen to use about 38 psi at all four 
corners, with 185/85-R14 radial light-truck tires on the stock wheels.
