Weight Balance
What can I use to measure weight balance on my 1/8th onroad cars?
I have a Serpent 960 and a MRX4X.

"Digital Weight Distribution Gauge" by Integy. Check with them about your specific application.

just to share some findings. im not sure if its suitable to use X-ray nt1 tweak method, refer their setup book online. doesnt need much tools or get any value for balancing weight, but it will balance your chassis by tuning spring preload collar and anti roll bar.
just my 2 cents

If you just want to get balance use a tweakboard, if you want real weights get 4 pocket scales of 1kg.

I couldn't find it either
The hudy balancing tools are good but they will only tell you which way your chassis is balancing, to the left or to the right not what's at each corner or backwards and forwards. And can only be used if your chassis has two very small holes at the front and rear of the chassis for the point of the balance tool
Roelof, do you have to have your shocks disconnected to weigh each corner properly? And where did you get those scales and how much were they?

These scales were bought for 12 euro a piece at a gadgetshop.
