As O_D said, a fish scale is probably what will substitute.
In my previous life we needed a tool to measure how much force it took to move part of a piece of equipment to ensure the brakes were being applied and released evenly. The special tool the manual called for was expensive and not readily available in this country. We found a good quality hanging fish scale did a commendable job. If that is what you need then there are all kinds of quality and working range scales available similar to the one in the photo. Just need to pick one that will work accurately in the range you want to measure.
If it is a different tool needed maybe your mechanic could provide more info.
