Default PROP HUB BALANCING SUGGESTIONS

Menz Prop for P47 balanced but hub is unbalanced.

Hub type spinner does not conceal hub, so the (Velcro/CA) techniques cant be used to balance hub.

Not sure about drilling holes in heavy side of hub from rear.

Suggestions?

TIA
Ira

Cancel the above question. It looks like 2 small pieces of lead shot inserted 3/16" into the back of the light side of hub do the trick.

As Emily Litella said "Never mind"!

Thanks for all the replies.

FG is always a wealth of info.
