Looking to replace window balance springs

I have two pairs of windows that won't stay up. Both are SH 40x56 Simonton windows; two are 1/1 and two are 6/6. I am guessing that the problem is the balance springs, and would like to order their replacements; but am unsure of the exact part. In a couple cases, the balance springs appear to be above the bottom sash (see first photo). I have included photos of the identification stickers for both sets. Please let me know if you require anything else. Thank you.

I'm afraid I can't identify your balances based on these photos. Those stickers don't tell us anything about the hardware used for your window.
This service requires a clear photo of the balance fully removed. I specifically need to see the top end, bottom end, stamp, and the hook at the end of the cord. Please also make sure that the balance you show us is in undamaged condition.
