Water and Ice

The density ratio between ice and water is 0.92.  Proportionally, the ratio of gravity of a ice planet to that of a water planet will also be 0.92, all other factors being equal.  Or not...

Looking for a ice planet and a water planet....Or a single planet that freezes up some where along its orbit about its sun, an extra distortion in its orbit due to the change in surface gravity may show up.
