Forklift truck scales comprise a scale assembly having a back plate and a front plate, the back plate connected to a mast on a lift truck and the front plate having a pair of forks for holding pallets or other items thereon. The front plate is held to the back plate via a plurality of laterally spaced and adjustable chains or cables near a top thereof and allowed to move vertically relative to each other via a roller near a bottom thereof. One or more load sensing elements or load cells are utilized to determine the weight of the load. The present invention minimizes inaccurate load readings, allows for quick and easy “heel to toe” adjustments of the scale, and further allows for in-motion weighing.
