Doing that will keep you balanced in dec, but give you an imbalance in RA, as you're adding more weight to the telescope side of the RA axis, but not to the counterweight shaft.. So you'd still need to rebalance and re-align the mount.. I suppose you could then make the same sort of weights for your cw shaft too, but honestly it would probably be less frustrating to just rebalance and re-align in the end..
