Bracket bent

I found the bracket I need to replace this bent bracket. Is there a way to unbend this bracket with out removing? The next thing is I found the bracket with this part number 17-062. But how do I remove the mounting screw seen in the picture since it's in a confined location?

Hello! When I couldn't remove a sash to get the sash clip out, I would use needle nose pliers to straighten it out. If it breaks off you might be able to use the 17-094 clip-on bracket. Take a look and see what you think.

Thanks Paul!

I will definitely look into these options. Thank you so much. I had one more question that would be amazing if you could answer. So my balancers don't have colored pieces at the end. Instead they just look like this how would I go about identifying the correct balancer?

I recommend the 3/8" diameter Series 400 non-tilt balance and you might want to go with the red-tip option. A pair of balances with this option can support a sash weighing up to 22 pounds. However, you can always weigh the window sash on a scale to confirm if this option is appropriate for your repair.
