I pulled CarlW's picture up in AutoCAD and scaled it so the width of the track matched Mopar's measurement. That allowed me to measure the width of the weight, which comes in at 0.193 and agrees with Max's measurement of 0.187.

When I first saw this picture, I thought there was a wire loop at the top of the weight that the string attached to. Now it looks like some sort of clear protector over the knot. Because of this, I can't really tell how long the weight is by the picture, which makes Max's measurement of 1.140" very helpful.

Can anyone tell me how the string attaches to the weight? I have my own idea, but I'd like to know how the original was.

I'll see what I can do in the shop tonight.
