This is true, but not when the difference is 35psi instead of 33psi. Gimme
a break!

This is assuming he is using tires with the same load rating as the OEM's.
Also note that most light truck tires have a maximum inflation level of
about 50psi. He won't damage them at 35psi.

He can try it, but it could easily be something different than a 2psi
difference in tire pressure.

I had an old Honda Civic on which the rear shocks actually became "frozen."
They had corroded and got stuck. I would check the shocks. You might also
check to see if your leaf springs are in good shape. Let us know what you
find out!
