Here are a couple links to get you started on the subject. The actual procedure is not discussed step-by-step (if that is what you are after) but the concept should be obvious if you understand this material. Scales would seem to be a "must-have" item. Conceptually, you could rough-it-in with some simple calculations using ride-height at each corner, which you can measure yourself, making sure you've settled the suspension between measurements. You can't get it very close with just ride-height however.

We had a long discussion about corner weights back in February, "964 Turbo instability"

The web site below is excellent and explains it all in plain English
