I had my car corner-weighted and aligned today. I'm curious about how good a job they did. My weights came out as follows:

753 727

724 697

Wouldn't it be better if they were the same at every wheel? I'm guessing that they would be pretty difficult to get that way. That was done with half a tank of gas and about 140lbs in the driver seat.

 

I've heard that the diagonals need to be close, not side to side or all 4, though all 4 the same is the ideal.

I'd go back and fill the tank, that will add more weight to the rear and ballance out the RR and LF diagonal weights.

 

If the diagonals are whats important, its good the way it is. that would be 1451lbs rf-lr, and 1450 lf-rr. Correct?

 

And isn't it better to do it with half a tank? I'm much more likely to be on track with half, rather than a full tank.

 

It was done perfectly.

 

Yup. Diagonals are what's important, and it's good the way it is.

 

it will be very hard to get the corners equal you can spend days trying to get it with in 2-3 lbs close to each other. the idea is to get the Cross weights 50/50 and the front to back as close as to 50/50 as possible.

was this done with you sitting in the car?

 

Can't get the corner weights equal unless you can actually shift mass around or have a symmetrical car like a formula car plus 50:50 front:rear distribution too.

That's interesting. A good knowledge base in case I ever get the chance to do it.
