Repost...
The cost of 4 bathroon scales...
Plus some scrap steel ans/or wood to build lever arrangements tot bring within scales capacity.
You can even make do with 1 but slow and tedious.
Beware of what you wish.. for it may come true....

OK - Assuming I dont have the scales or necessary skills to correct any problems with the corner weighting. What are the costs for a pro-place to do
it ?
Anyone had it done recently ?

normally about £200-250 including setting camber caster ride height etc etc.
Anything With Tits or Wheels Will cost you MONEY!!

make sure when you have the car corner weighted you sit in the car whilst it is being balanced.
This will give a better balance of the car as it has your weight in it whilst being weighted.

Get a an estimate/quote from procomp.

Or somewhere else. There are plenty of places which can carry out corner-weighting for you. Northampton Motorsport is one place which springs to
mind which may not be far away from you.

Another method is, with a suitably flat floor, use a corner weight gauge such as this one.

If I were to pay-some one to do this I would defiantly call pro-comp first...
