I got shown this way years ago to get the % front - % rear
Weigh front and rear (i propped the other end of the car so it was level,add together,then take the front weight and divide by the overall weight (move the decimal point 2) of the car and same with the rear and that gives you your % front to rear
For Example
Front weighs 686
Rear weighs 1040
Total 1726
686 / 17.26 = 39.74
1040 / 17.26 = 60.25
Round it out to the nearest number so this set up will be 60/40 weight distribution
Another Example
But this time,i have removed weight off the front which in turn has altered the rear aswell,
Front weighs 649
Rear weighs 1046
Total 1695
649 / 16.95 = 38.28
1046 / 16.95 = 61.71
Round it out to the nearest number so this set up will be 62/38 weight distribution
This is the way i have been shown,Please correct me if i am wrong
Cheers
Iain
