Unfortunately, there's no way to replace these balances without removing the jamb liner first. If there are no screws on the trim piece holding the jamb in, then you'll have to find some other way to remove it. If it's nailed in you could pry it out. If it's glued in then you're in some trouble; it's possible whoever made this window never intended for this hardware to be repaired, so you'll have to contend with that. You might want a professional to come out and take a look at your windows in that circumstance.

If it has clips that hold the jamb liner how do they attach?
Do you sell jamb liners if I wreck this one?

I'm not sure, it would depend in the clips I suppose. What kind of clips are you talking about, exactly?

I'm afraid we do not sell replacement jamb liners.

Your best bet would be the original window manufacturer. If you are unable to contact them directly then a local mill work who still makes wood windows may be able to assist you.

I am sorry that we can't be of more help. Jamb liners are just not something we sell.
