Can you tell me what the difference is between the 380 and the 385 series? I see the shoe has different numbers but they look the same in the picture. Mine are stamped 1720 and are 17 3/4" long. I need 4 of them. Thank you, Bill.

Do you think 1/4 of an inch would make a difference?
No, I think a full 18" would be okay.
Thank you for your advice about measuring the shoe. Here's a bit more detail about where to measure, which worked for me:
The bottom of the shoe has a long straight section, then angles and curves up to form a rounded "toe" facing the window. I measured from the point of the "toe", parallel to the long straight section, to the other side of the shoe. In my case, it was 1 3/32", and the new sash balance fit perfectly.
