Take the wheel assembly off and weigh that. Take the damper and spring assembly out and weigh that. Then, use a bathroom scale to weight the unsupported suspension parts left on the car. you want to hit the scale at close to full droop to make sure most of the suspension is supported by the scale.

It won't be as accurate as weighing off the car, but we are talking a pretty minor margin of error difference.
