Hey there,

Thanks for posting! Many people with your type of Alside pivot shoe have the problem of the nylon hook breaking. We suggest replacing this shoe with the 15-177 Coil Balance Shoe.

Your existing spring seems to still be in working condition, so you'll be able to reuse them. To attach them to the shoe, you'll need the 33-071 screw.

If you decide you do need the replace the springs, this shoe is compatible with the 1/2" thick Series 152 Coil Balance. To select the correct spring, you'll need to look for any stamps/markings on the coil. If there are none, you'll need to obtain the exact weight of your sash and divide it by the total number of coils in the window.
