Can anyone recommend a good trailer scale product? We never used them since we always spec'd our trailers out with springs but looking to add since we have air ride now. Thanks. |

Been using Rght Weight scales which are usually pretty accurate. I have the bluetooth one which reads the truck and trailer, and can watch it while I load on my phone. They make a liquid filled one that has a adjustment in it which you can set the pounds on it when on a certified scale to set it. Once set it pretty much stays pretty accurate.

Right weigh analog gauges are good. I've switched to Air Weigh's iWeigh system on 2 trucks, and several air and spring ride trailers. It's expensive, but quite accurate. I've had some issues keeping the spring ride axle sensors calibrated, but overall I would recommend them because you can be anywhere near the truck or trailer and see gross weight and individual axle weights on your phone screen. |

I have the Blue Ink Technology and the trailer does not connect automatically, as it should. The tractor works fine. I have to remove the sensor and take out the battery and reinstall. It takes a few minutes to do and will connect once I do that. After they connect they work well. Im a bit dissatisfied with their support. I have been using them about 8 months. Usually they are off a hundred pounds give or take. |

Being able to easily adjust them is important, got several in the tractors that seem to have gotten off. Thanks for the info! |
