Has anyone weighed their truck to get the weight on their front and rear axles? I've searched every way I can think of and have found nothing.

Thanks,

Do you have any friends that are into drag racing or work for "DOT"? they use scales that weigh each wheel one at a time. Here in Michigan we have truck stops that have scales for the semi's. Anyone can use these for the same fee as truckers. Sounds inconvenient but this will give you actual and not another persons truck.
Good luck
 
Borrowed some aircraft scales and did the deed today. For the record, my truck weighed 2640 lbs. It has a 302 and C-4 with an 8" rear. Weight bias is 51% on the front and 49% on the rear. That surprised me. I figured it would be more on the front end.
