I dont think the scales charge that much to weigh do they ? Something to the effect of $7.00?....I cant remember. Once I get a chance to hook everything up I will post the results as I am sure a few might be interested.

If you use CAT scales, they charge 9$ for the first weight and $1 for all the rest. Issue I had was the line of very large trucks behind me, I had to be expedient in my weighing. So I weighed the three axles first (2 on TV and 1 on trailer on seperate pads of the scale). Then I pulled off and unhooked the trailer and got the 2 axles of the TV without the trailer. Seemed to provide enough info to figure things out. You could do the first weight with the trailer with and without the WD bars hooked up. It might be hard to communicate with the scale folks if it is busy and they are not co-located with the scale itself (like at the truckstop I was at).
My local scale charges $10 / weight, so that could get more expensive.
