Air Helper Springs ????

I have a pair of Firestone air helper springs on my rear end, bought the truck with them on there. Will be hauling heavy items and was curious as to if anyone knows the maximum PSI I can put into the air bags? I can't find anything stamped on the bags themselves and no paperwork was left behind. Thanks in advance for any help.

One thing too is don't deflate them all the way. I always keep about 10 PSI in mine when not towing. They will loose a little as the temp changes so you might have to bump them up just a little every couple of days. Other then that they are great. I love having my truck run stock height even with a heavy load or trailer in tow.
