  2. Hi Junior, I guess I can speak with a little authority on this. I own a Coats service center and weight placement is a continual issue for us. We get lots of complaint that the balancer is chasing weight, when in reality the tech is placing the weights off TDC creating a problem. To answer your question, at one time Coats made pretty much what you're looking for (but only if your balancer has a 40 mm shaft). The part # was 85608046. It is a laser attachment, useful for either balance plane. Coats obsoleted the part a few years ago, but I am attaching a link to a vendor who says it is in stock. Remember it is for 40 mm shaft only. http://www.autotoolworld.com/Hennessy-Industries-85608046-Coats-Laser-Guided-Weight-Placemnt-Tool_p_217301.html The newer Coats balancers (1500,1600) use a built in laser for inboard placement, but still rely on the tech placing the weight correctly on the outboard side. The adapter they made was handy, but a little cumbersome for most shops, so I guess they saw little demand for it. Hope this helps, JefTEC
