Home window wood circa 1967 Chicago suburb Hanover Park

Quick Learner from Hanover Park Illinois
Aloha,

Refurbing uncles house. On this window, it has a spring assist mechanism within an aluminum frame on each side. The bottom hook of the spring on the left side (from interior) failed. We need a new spring?.which is off site. The spring is about as long as a small water bottle terminating into a hook on each side. We bent some tabs and opened the casing to reveal a block and tackle pulley system attached to a strong spring. We require another spring and possibly new Paully (block). Hopefully y'all are window ninjas and this is old hat?.fingers crossed. Appreciate your time and consideration.

Aloha,
Dave

Hi, Dave.

Thanks for reaching out to us. It's hard to say what you have from this photo alone. I'm afraid your balance is too damaged to identify. Can you remove an undamaged balance from the window and show us some photos, along with any attachments?
