CapriRacer,
I did make it to measuring my wheel loads today. The data is more eye opening then I had expected. I have 300# total error in the data that I want to find before I post the data. This could be accumulative error of 50# from each wheel location.

I have seen enough to convince myself I need more reserve capacity.
Thanks

SLR is not a great tool for finding load as tire stiffness varies around a tire probably in the 20# to 100# per inch or more. There is also a time factor "creep" thet will enter into your measurements.
I would think that if you can get +/- 50# readings that would be OK as we are more concerned with loads in the multiple hundreds of pounds.
Your bushings will also cause some variation.
Looking forward to seeing your final values even if +/- 50 #
