Could you build this?

Partial The phone app and live display are easy to vibe-code. Turning pressure readings into accurate axle weights needs sensor interfacing and per-vehicle calibration, which is domain-specific.

What it would actually take: A mobile app (React Native or native) that connects over BLE or Wi-Fi to air-suspension controllers and reads pressure data. The hard part is the physics model: mapping bag pressure to axle load per vehicle and suspension geometry, with calibration and validation against certified scales. That requires vehicle-dynamics and metrology expertise, plus access to controller protocols.
