when I weighted mine at the co-op I pull onto the scales and they gave me a total. Which is within 20 Lbs. Then I backed up until I had just the front tires on the scales, they wrote down the weight and then I pulled forward till the rear tires were on the scales. Maybe not the best way but it gave me a rough ideal of my front / rear ratio. 48/52%
May a note on how much gas you have in the tank. I got out of the car each time. I did have 50 lbs of tools and stuff in the trunk.
