Coil balances

Hi, 

Last week you guys recognized my obscure pivot bars and sent me replacements. I was astonished. Now, it gets hardest. Turns out the coil balances are also broken on both sides in two windows.

Can the attached photos give you a clue as to what I need?

Thanks,

BG

Hello! I'm glad to hear we were able to help you with your pivot bars. Fortunately, we can help with your coil balances, too. I know exactly what you have.

The components used in your balance assembly are are 15-087 housing pivot and Series 180 coil spring. Additionally, if you use two springs per side, you'll also want the 15-086 secondary housing. I can't quite tell if that's the case here, though, so you'll have to check.

Each coil spring is individually weighted. You'll have to get the stamp printed on the old coil band in order to determine which weight is best for you. This number should be printed near the end, right by the two holes.

Please let me know if you had any other questions and I'd be happy to assist you.

Thank you! I need two 6's, a left and right, and two 8's. Can you set up the order?
Yours,
