Been noticing my oil psi running at 34 -37 at idle when fully warm. When cruising hot it is 55 ish psi.

2015 Ram 1500 SLT QC 2WD, 111,000 miles.

Fresh oil change, PP 5W-20 with lubegard biotek this change.

Anything to be concerned about?

Just removed and belt-sanded my exhaust manifolds for top rear broken studs both sides.

Also, just noticed after sitting since yesterday afternoon, my oil temp started out at 104°, and my tramsmission was at 100°.

Will watch closer the next day or two, always on edge after doing repairs. Cannot afford to have something go out on me.

Thanks.

Normal. I don’t think the temp sensors go down any lower than that on your base cluster so again no concerns.
