Re: 170a aileron balance
The asterisk calls attention to the note that “some Model 170A airplanes were delivered with 1.75-pounds lead balance weight in the ailerons.” The 140A calls for 1.75 pounds of lead on their ailerons. Looks like Cessna stole from the 140A aileron inventory when they ran out on the 170A line. Their ailerons share the same part numbers.

Back to the OP's question, does anyone have the aileron balance specs, since the 100 series service manual doesn't list them?

Re: 170a aileron balance
That is the weight tolerance of the counterweight, not the balance spec.

Cessnut:
If you follow the link to the MX Library, you will find the balance spec.
(But I believe that the MX Library may be accessible only to members of The International Cessna 170 Association.)
