Any leads on the process?
sure thingI use a paper version of the same formula's and a calculator
(don't want to leave the garage and log into a computer)
if you do the (simple) math... you will find most starting points about 30lbs off in each corner after carefully setting ride height. (Sometimes a corner will be 70lbs off depending on how carefully you set ride height.)
by then making adjustments using the formula each time, you can bring the numbers closer and closer to ideal
we usually stop in the 1lb range
jacking ride height UP adds weight to that corner
lowering ride height takes weight off
you want to start with the corner that is furthest off in pounds from ideal
I recommend making any changes, one corner at a time
it takes longer but making multiple changes is more likely to set you in the wrong direction. (similar to jetting carbs... one thing at a time)
we roll off of the scales for each change and don't forget to resettle the suspension (bounce it a lot) and zero-calibrate the scales before rolling back on for the next measurements.
its a long process
a few hours minium, and a half day if you have had the suspension off.
