Hi Winston. This Pivot Shoe resembles our 15-177, which uses our Series 152 Coil Springs. If your old springs are undamaged you don't need to replace them, but if you do, and if the window sash weighs exactly 18 lbs, then you can just use (2) of the S152-9 9 lb Coil Springs, one for each side of the window sash. Note this will be one less spring on each side of the sash than you currently have, which is totally fine--with coil balance systems, you just need to match the weight that has to be supported. It will also be a lot easier to reinstall. Let me know if you have any other questions. |
