Guide bar needed

A quick learner says:
Looking for a guide bar to fit the shoes on the dual arm operator. The old bar was 26.5". Wondering if I can get by with something smaller?

It appears you have an older Andersen awning operator. We do not have this, and to be honest I'm not sure if you can still get the guide bar for your window. You might need to install one of the newer style operators like the 39-389, but this may require some adaptation of the sill. See what you think.
