I'm at a stage, where I need to buy the coilovers, and I'm a total beginner about this.
Right now, I don't have anything to support the four wheels (except the uca & lca of course), to be able to measure each corner.
Should I make up a rigid support, like a tube with two holes at the ends, and mount it into the brackets?
I still need to make the brackets as well.
Bathroom scales should be enough to weigh the car right? They also should the leveled of course.
It is not enough to measure each corner at a time?
Thank you.

First tack up your coilover br@ketz. Then block the car at ride height with wheels installed. Measure center to center of your br@ket holes. I used 4 pieces of 1" sq tube cut 1 1/2" longer than the measurement. Drill the holes in the sq tubes, install onto your br@ketz. There you go, you have a rolling chassis at ride height.
And post pics because that's a milestone!
