Tire Pressure

Got some new 31/10.5/15 BFG A/T's. What tire pressure do you guys recommend.
I've got a 96 2wd shortbox Reg cab, With my last set of mud tires i ran 33psi the max on the BFG's is 50psi, I carry a load in the back of about 1000 pounds once a week on dirt roads, I'm on the freeway for a hour a day and in dirt on the weekends.
So what do ya guys think...33psi sound about right?

I run about 35 in my back tires and 40 in the front. I have BF dualer APT 31x10.50's rated at 50psi as well. I constantly have 500-700 lbs of tools in the back of my truck and I have 40k of even wear on the tires. I expect another 10k out of them, and they have a 50k treadwear warrenty (one of the few 31's that have a treadwear warrenty. My truck is an 89 4x4 though.

I have Bridgestone Dueler A/T 31x10.5R15's, and I'm currently running 35 psi all the way around. I plan to increase that to 40 psi, though, if/when I get new shocks.

Take care,
