Coil Balance Help

Question

Hi, I currently have the BF Rich Vintage windows installed back in 2002.  When I unlocked this one window, the top came sliding right down.  I am thankful it did not shatter.  Anyway, attached are photos of the parts I need.  By doing some re-search here on you site, I was somewhat educated on the names of the parts needed.  Pivot Shoe(s) and Coil Double Support(s).  I need all including the round coil that goes into the supports.  If possible, I'd like to order for two of the same size windows.  (8) double supports and the coils that go with them and (8) Pivot Shoes.  Attached are photos that I hope you can identify easily.

I've seen this BF Rich balance system a couple times in the past, but we've never been able to track down an exact match. That said, our 15-228 pivot shoe is very similar in design to your original and may be used as a substitute, along with our 1/2" thick Series 160 coil spring and 15-150D double spring support.

Just note that I've never tried these parts myself and I cannot guarantee that they will work. They are simply my best educated guess. Look them over and see what you think.
