Rear Bag PSI @ Ride Height?

I was wondering what you guys run for psi on your rear bags while driving, not tryin to look cool and low, what have you guys found to be the best psi for the rear bags. I also have a panel, so suburban guys please reply too, or guys that haul a small load and drive with their trucks. Thanks in advance.

Currently at about 24#, but that's to get the backend down to match the new xmember on the front. I found 45# to be the best number on the rear... and will get back there once I remove the top cups and mount straight to frame.

XXL how do you plan on removing the plates. I use a bolt in C-notch, and with the factory support in that area its around 1/2" that could be used to go lower/take 1/2" out of your blocks, get the right psi you want, etc.... Boxing the frame along that area is obvious help but what else do you plan?

On my 77 Cheyenne the bags are mounted on top of the springs. I find that pressure in the low 50's rides ver nice....
