Does anybody know where one can get their car weighed in at locally? Something that will tell you the loading on the front and rear wheels. Does Quaker have something like this? Thanks.

i went to summit supply in girard, its on 422 as youre going into niles on the opposite side of the road from the golf dome, almost at tibbets wick. they charged me $4.50 and gave me an ohio official weight slip. they only weigh your car with you in it, and they dont give you the front/rear split.

You talking about a place that does corner weights Mark? There's a chassis shop in Warren that might do that. Master Street Engineering I think. 330-372-1040.

Jesus fucking Christ I just called there and they want 150 bucks but it's a lifetime type of deal. I hate being broke. I guess I'll hit up the $4.50 place that bill recommended unless someone knows a cheaper place that does front/rear loading. Trucks stop scales?

That sucks! :cry:

You might contact an OSHA place to ask. Idk how accurate semi truck scales are cal'd for light ass cars, although I guess they would have to be able to tell the difference in weight, just wonder if its not accurate until you really load them...idk.

I rolled up on LaFarge's scale off Meridian. Guy said go on up, was accurate within 10lbs. 2920 1/2 tank gas, myself in it with the swap. Oh yeah free.
