70-75PSI is a low ride height and 80-85PSI is an elevated ride height for me running SMC 1/2" fill and dumps. Running a V6 with Slam Specalties RE-7's up front and Firestone sleeve bags in the rear. Probably why my pressures are so low. What are you running for bags and what do you have for a motor? The valves should have nothing to do with it really but the motor weight and the bags you have will make a difference. 120PSI still is really frigg'in high though. Are you sure your air gauge is reading right?

I usually run at about 80-85 psi which is pretty low, I pushed a rock about 30 feet tonight as I slowed to a stop sign. It does take a tank pressure of about 110 before it will lift off the ground though.
