Sticker on mine has 60 front, 80 rear. Sure this is intended for max load. I generally run 60/60 when empty. Always 80 in the spare.

With OEM 245/75/16 I run 55psi front 45psi rear when empty. On a CC 4x4 the front axle carries ~4k lbs. and the rear about 3k lbs.-makes sense to run more pressure with more load. The truck rides MUCH MUCH better with 45 in the rear vs. 60+, ESPECIALLY for riders in the back seat!
