I've heard 200, all the way up to 250. Wondering who runs what, and why. Seems most run fronts/rears at the same pressure, but all input is welcome—Thanks!

Thanks for the reply. Reason I asked is that "stock pressure" is all over the place. Originally, it was listed somewhere around 240, but then Ford started recommending 200. I called Fox directly, and they are now recommending 200. Several known rebuilders with exchange programs use a range between 200 and 250. Strange. Can't seem to get a definite answer.

Do they firm up with more pressure? can you tailor the ride by reducing the pressure? just curious. Or not reccommended?

I'm sure they do firm up with more pressure, but I'm also sure that adds load to the seals. Not sure if it would be worth the risk of premature wear.
