It appears that you have either an S380 or S385 balance. The difference between the two series balances lies in the shoe.

Comparison of the S378, S380 and S385 balance shoes.

The series 385 balance has the 15-004 shoe which is slightly larger from front to back, as illustrated.

If you measure your shoe as it is pictured here, you should be able to determine which one you need.

Please let me know if you have other questions.

Looking to replace the 2 balances in my window. Attached are the pictures of the sticker on the window and the old balance.

Yes, but trying to figure out which ones I need for weight. I don't know how heavy it is. Do the numbers on the old balance tell me anything?

Your old stamp looks to me that it indicates a sash weight of 38 pounds. That'd be our 2965 option. I highly recommend weighing your sash on a scale to be 100% sure. You can see a chart on the S385-30 store page.
