Accurate air scale

Right Weigh | Onboard Load Scales

Digital on my current truck & trailer

Have had analogs on just trailers in the past

 

Times 2 on Right Weigh. I have it.

 

I just ran gauges into my truck off of the airbags on the truck and trailer.

I think they were like $10 on Amazon. Plus fittings and Airlines.

Once you know how your truck is loaded, you know right where your gauges need to be.

Always worked for me.

 

Same here, and they were surprisingly accurate. 63 pounds on the gauge was pretty darn close to 34K. Pulling containers with no rear slider, saved my aXX many times.

 

Yes, air gauges will do. Get loaded legal, Marx the gauges with a permanent marker and you’ll be fine. It’s essentially the same thing. The scale company setup is just turning the air pressure into a weight number and I do believe you
Need to load legal to calibrate it th first time as well so no difference other than cost.

 

Times 3 on right weigh scale system... I could load my truck and trailer every single day at the rock quarry with a right weigh on trailer and factory psi gauge on drives and know where I'm at within 500 pounds...

 

I've got the RightWeigh in my dash and on the back of my trailer.

Load heavy, get a scale ticket, adjust your weights on the gauges, roll with confidence

 

Air guage anywhere past the leveling valve, scale empty, take tare and divide by psi, to figure out how many pounds each psi supports, (485 lbs x 80 =38800) costs like $15 for water filled guage and fittings

then load it till it’s full and roll anyway….

 

The right weigh system may be easier to install, although it will cost more.

If you put air gauges you have to run Airlines and buy some fittings.

It's not expensive, but it might take you a little time to run the airlines up to the front of the trailer and to run Airlines into the cab.

I think either way is accurate, it just depends how much work you feel like doing versus how much money you feel like spending.
