ABSTRACT A scale testing vehicle and method for use on platform scales, having at least one scale section, is disclosed. The scale testing vehicle includes a chassis which mounts front and rear axle assemblies. A weight bed is mounted on the chassis together with a crane. The weight bed receives a plurality of uniform weight units which may be removed and replaced by the crane from their location on the bed. A pair of lifting cylinders are mounted immediately adjacent and forward the wheels of the rear axle assembly. After the vehicle is driven onto a scale section, the cylinder lifting legs are extended wherein the front of the vehicle is elevated and the entire static load of the vehicle and weight units is applied to the lifting legs and the rear axle assembly, both of which are confined within the periphery of the individual scale section. The known vehicle load is then compared with the load indicated by the scale. If required, individual areas with- in the periphery of the scale section are tested by removing the vehicle from the scale section and placing uniform weight units at various locations on the scale section. A comparison is then made of the known load of the uniform weight units and the load indi- cated by the scale at each of the various areas tested.
