Default Corner Weighing

Ok after a little Suspension 101 I am officially schooled! Found a few articles on this topic. Does anyone know of any tuner shops that do this? I think I could actually do it myself if I could "get" the wheel scales... anyone? anyone? Bueller?

If you actually do it by yourself, I would be thoroughly impressed.

NOt for 1000 bucks!!! Dude, my dad is a plumber... he's has an EXCELLENT set of tools!

It doesnt seem that hard!?! Unless I'm a total retard, it's just throwing some weight around and balancing the corners (roughly) with you in it... and then adjusting the height to distribute the weight diagonally at about 50%

I just need the computer and the weight pads and the coilovers... you gonna hook me up?

I think when I'm done, I'll start a business with my fender roller and me corner balancer that you're gonna steal for me!

Anyone?

European Racing Techologies (ERT) right there in Wilmington used to do that stuff. They used to be the shop for DuPont's SCCA Speed World Challenge cars. They had a really nice in-ground dyno there too.

I can't find their website anymore though... Did they close up shop or something?

Yeah they went outta business but are supposedly restarting under "Dupont Motorsports" I talked to a guy over there and they're really not into doing anything yet but said they MIGHT be able to help. ..
