Broken Balance

Question

I have a window with a couple of broken balances. One on the upper pane and one on the lower. I'd like to order replacements to do both sides of both panes. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find any identification of the balance weight. I put the label into AI and it spit out the details attached, which are hopefully correct. Looking for help figuring out which parts I need. Again, I'd like to replace the balance on each side of both the upper and lower pane (for peace of mind). Looking forward to hearing back, thank you!

Thanks for reaching out! Your Simonton balance assembly is no longer made but we are quite confident the 15-259 and Series 159 Coil Balance will work to replace it. Your existing pivot bar will not be compatible with this shoe, so you'll also need to the 26-083. The specifications for the shoe and pivot bar can be found on the website.

Please see the tutorial below for instructions on completing this conversion. There is also a tutorial (tagged below this thread) with instructions on selecting the correct coil weigh option.
