I have the pro form scales and they work great, gives corner balance and work off batteries.

 

I had Intercomp scales, they worked really well and at the time were under $900 delivered to the house from Jegs. They were invaluable getting my car at the time set up correctly but after that they just sat in the box unless I loaned them out.

 

All I know about scales is I like the wireless units I borrow.

 

Well Speedway motors had there sale for tax return time and I just ordered the Proform ones for $829. back when I made the post most places were $970. Hope they work out. I'm skeptical about the quality but Toolodtom posted he likes them. Wish me luck lol.

These are the ones incase anyone else wants to grab them on sale.

Proform 67644 7000lb Slim Wireless Vehicle Scale

 

Longacre with cables. much more durable than wireless IMO.

I bought a set, work perfect. Don't tell any of your buddies you have them....

Triple beam

 

Ruggles is all you need.

 

Triple beam of course, damn it I was TREED!

 

Get some grain scales and thank me later! Especially if it's a 4 link car.

 

Your dirt is showing!

 

Got proforms thru Auotzone, 20% off and free delivery

 

Whichever you choose, make certain the floor you're on is perfectly level, or get adjustable stands for them. Even a 1/4 inch drop in the floor will wildly change your reading with a ridged car. I have a set of wireless intercomps. With my tube cars, I can slide a piece of thick cardboard under one scale and throw 30 to 40 pounds around.

 

My shop has a drain in the center with a lot of slope. Wondered about making stands to level everything. Hard to justify the cost for my slow junk but I'd like to be able to check weights.

 

I bought a good set of Rebco's back in the late 90's..they are still working great after over a hundred feature wins!

 

Now on Amazon, there are many high-quality and accurate bathroom scale that you can purchase. And so I've seen models of scales that allow you to monitor your total weight and allow you to find out your percentage of body fat and water.

How many bathroom scales does it take to weigh your fat mama?

 

I have the Intercomp SW500 E-Z weigh and they are great. I got lucky and picked them up from a car sponsor that had more money then sense. I gave him 500.00 for set and rolling cart to store electronics and scales, never even used.

 

Longacre have been really good to me.

 

lol,really?

 

Borrowed my buddies scales awhile back, I pride myself on jackstand safety, using wheel chocks when needed, and not getting killed working in my own garage. Sooo, I jack up the front, put the scales under the front wheels, started to jack up the back and that fucker rolls off the scales in front. I took a jack handle to the nuts, put out my hands to stop the fucker as I'm being crushed up against my bandsaw, accidentally pulled the cable out of the chute, and took the pilot chute right in the face. Funniest shit nobody ever saw!

 

Bad day at bedrock^^^. I got on for ya. Back in the 80's i was doing a water pump and belt on a 4 banger Stang. told BIL, Hey Tone, Bump the key so i can recheck the timing marks.He is standing along the car. Tap,Tap. The car fires. and is high idle. Manual trans stuck in reverse.

Out the FCN door she goes. Takes out the overhead door. 12 Pane door. shoots across the lot.
Jumps 4 lanes of traffic and stopped at the light pole. I will never forget the looks on the customers faces that were pumping their gas. "There She Goes"

 

I bought 2 Amazon scales and found out my left nut is heavier than my right nut, no wonder I’m always pulling left.

 

Ive got a set of RJ racecars scales $ sale... Not electronic, but work well. Hit me up...
