I have Wenco windows[now owned by Jeld Wen]. The windows are about 25 years old. I am trying the replace the part in the window jam where the pivot post of the window is inserted. This part I believe is called a friction shoe.
I am also trying to replace torn weatherstripping in the window.
Please see the photos above.

I am afraid we don't have a replacement for this friction shoe. This appears to be a jamb liner system, where springs are built into the window jambs. If so, contact a millwork in your area. They should be able to set you up with replacements. For the weatherstripping, please show us a clear view of the end profile. That cross-section view will help us narrow down your possibilities.

Please see two attached photos of the weatherstripping. It is bubble weatherstripping. The base is about 1/4 inch and the bubble is also about 1/4 inch.
