Pivot Shoe replacement - Sears Window

Question

I believe the I've found enough information on your site to know that the 15-259 pivot shoe is the proper replacement for the broken pivot shoe in the photos I've provided. And I know that I need to also get a new pivot bar 26-083 to replace the existing pivot bars. (Sears Vinyl Window installed in 2009).

Any Idea if these would work with the existing coil balances already in the window? It's difficult to know the weight without taking out the window, and would like to avoid taking out the window completely until I start the project.

Hey there!

Thanks for reaching out to us. Yes, the 15-259 and S159 can replace your old hardware. Your old springs aren't compatible with our shoe though, so you must use the Series 159. I'm afraid weighing the window is necessary.

If you'd like, you can get back to us with the precise weight and we can calculate the proper spring weights from there.
