[QUOTE="OX1, post: 16895732, member: 175132"] I can't afford new Hellcats (well, I'd at least have to pare down my fleet by 50% first, before I could :( ), so I grab other toys to play with when I can. Nabbed this Hunter 9712, RF balancer for a smokin deal a week ago. [IMG]http://luxjo.supermotors.net/MISC%20TRUCK-PARTS%20PICS/TOOLS/BALANCER/9712/20230317_093930.jpg[/IMG] I kept my old balancer and the main electronics case for my Hunter alignment system, in my house garage, as I don't want them exposed to much below freezing in the winter (don't heat the big shop all the time). My old balancer, a very small DSP7700 has done me well for 20 odd years, but time to open up some space. [IMG]http://luxjo.supermotors.net/MISC%20TRUCK-PARTS%20PICS/TOOLS/BALANCER/9712/BENCH%20SPACE/20230325_074316.jpg[/IMG] Had to chop out 16" of my workbench, which I don't even use with a 3200 Sq.

Almost 14K balances, it shows statistics on forces and deflection, split out by 1rst, 2nd, and 3rd Order Harmonics, total tire Road Forces and Lateral/Radial Runouts (some of it may be wheel runout, not sure yet), and Conicity/Plysteer lateral tire forces. Conicity I think is just like it sounds, the variation in diameter across a tire face (I have no idea what the heck Plysteer means though :)). Since I'm a newb on Road Force/runout-wheel/tire numbers, it will be nice to have a bunch of "what the hell is it supposed to be" numbers at my disposal, going forward. Also won't hurt to have this info if you get your stuff "roadforced".
