MRR Tech Session #4: Corner Weighing
Some photos from the corner weighing tech sessions in past years:
The MRR program contains a nice write-up on what corner weighing is, examples for several generations of RX-7s, calculations, etc.
Note: we are referring to this as corner weighing as opposed to corner balancing, as not everyone has height-adjustable coil-over shocks that are normally required for balancing the car - that kind of shock allows the corners to be adjusted up or down to shift weight. If you have these, and would like to adjust your car, we can assist you with that, but we would need to find a perfectly flat piece of ground (you would need a large level), tools to adjust your spring perches, etc. Contact me in advance if you wish to adjust your suspension as opposed to just weighing corners.

Cheers,
Steve
