    Anybody have a 4 corner set up or know somewhere on the front range that does? Im curious to know what I weigh on each corner with all the added weight as I am prepping to order new springs.

    Thanks!

    Bump. Anybody? I have found a few places that say they can weight a truck that I am going to call tomorrow. I would just really like to get a per corner weight. Surely one of you fine folk have done this somewhere...

    I know there's a couple of truck stops that can do per wheel, but most of the time when I hear it talked about on here (and my own experience) it's just per axle (landscape materials places are common).

    Per axle would be better than the whole truck. I can always divide by two! Where do you know that can do it per axle?

    I'm way north of you so I'm sure there's somewhere closer, but two of the landscape supply places I've gone (Crystal who is local and Pioneer who is regional and has places down there) have split scales so they can do trailers and trucks separately or whatever. If you mention it before pulling on they can stop you with one axle on each plate. Places like that aren't going to be as precise/calibrated as a shop like Tim mentioned though. Even truck stops are known to vary and I've heard conversations (CB) about who was good or not depending on if you wanted to actually know or just pass.
