Anyone have or know who might have 4 corner scales in the Utah area? I'd like to get the corner weights on my car but buying the scales is more than my budget will allow, but I would be willing to pay some one to weigh the car if they would be interested. Thanks Dave

Dave, if you brought it to Evanston I could get it weighed for you, I think Ralph out at RMR also has some scales, he was at one time charging people a fairly small fee to weigh a car out. It would benifit your car if you got the weights right.

Thanks Glen, if I can't find anyone locally I will be glad to bring it up your way. How did you set yours up for corner weights?

Dave, Got mine equal weights in the rear, mine was easy to do, just jacked around with the torsion bars, it's been more consistent and my sixty improved after I got the old gal weighed out.

It`s pretty cheap that way and if you can put your weight in the seat then you can tweek torsion bars and move weight around and keep an eye on things better if not, no biggie. I have two batts and that`s the easiest way(other than ballast bars/weights)to get the needed wieght over the pass side. GOOD LUCK..........
