Okay, numb nuts question perhaps but how the hell can you balance the wheels while they are still on the car?

This was the only reliable way to do it years ago.

i bet, years ago, that wheels used to vibrate like hell?

Haven't seen one of those for years... well since i was 18 and had a mk1 escort..... nearly said to go and find someone who has an on car balancer.
Probly find they all failed health and safety checks and got binned.
Imagine running your 33's up to 50mph whilst on he truck sat on axle stands and it does start to vibrate badly....

If it had been a 2nd Gen I would have said check to see if the front prop shaft is dis-engaging properly when in normal 2-wheel drive... but of course the 3rd Gen is permanent 4-wheel-drive.

Nope, these wee things balanced everything, the wheel, the hub and the drum or disc. So no vibrations at all. Brilliant things.
