I don't have any exact air pressure settings for you or anyone for that matter as there are just too many variables involved on each setup but I can walk you through the process below using an air ride pin box on a vehicle with air shocks/bags.

Step 1: Deflate Air Shocks/Bags On Vehicle and Pin Box
Step 2: Couple Trailer and Tow Vehicle
Step 3: Inflate Air Shocks/Bags On Vehicle Till Level (Usually 50-100 Psi)
Step 4: Inflate Air Shocks/Bags On Pin Box Till Fill Line Is Reached (Usually 80-100 Psi)

The pressure inside the air shocks/bags on the vehicle and pin box can then be adjusted to get more support or comfort but again I would not have any specifics on this nor should anyone else for that matter as you will need to adjust these yourself.
