Truck weight scales

Ahoy, Eagles,
I tried to post this earlier, but lost it.
I want to 'tune' the suspension of my -01 Eagle before I take it for a proper front end alignment.
I tried -- years ago - to adjust the suspension with a hydraulic jack and a (good) pressure gage. Poor result. The jack (a good one from Grainger) had a surprising amount of friction, and was also quite sensitive to side load. Maybe 15%-- 20% of the pressure was hysterisis friction. I just did not achieve good repeatable results. SO:
Does anyone know where I can beg-borrow-rent-buy an electronic portable truck weight jack?? None to be found on ebay.
Enjoy /s/ Bob
