All measurements match the VE Anderson crank except my arm is straight and the VE Anderson has a bend.

Thanks for reaching out! I'm sorry to say I cannot confirm the the dimensions based on the photos of the measuring tape. I'll need to know the written measurements from your existing operator.

I'll also need to see a photo of the operator removed to see the details of the link arm as well as the placement of the installation holes.

Please let me know if you have any questions in the meantime.

All measurements of my crank match those in the VE Anderson 39-259 crank, however as you can see the arm on mine is straight and the VE Anderson arm has a bend. Is there another option that has the same measurements with a straight arm?

Thanks for the photo! Yes, I already have the measurements from our operator, however I am still not able to confirm with certainty if they are the same exact measurements based on your photos. That said, I'll have to go based on your confirmation.

I believe the replacement you'll need is the 39-084 Crown Window Crank. The opposite handed version is the 39-085. To confirm that this is the right fit for your window, be sure to carefully review and compare the dimensions shown below.

Yes we verified all of our measurements. The Crown 39-084 you are referencing matches everything but the arm length. My arm length is 2 1/2 and the Crown is 2 1/4. I don't know that the shorter arm length is compatible. Are you able to confirm that?

Thanks for confirming. The arm length should not impede the function of the operator. There's enough room in the linkage to get away with a fair bit of a difference in the length measurement.

I hope this helps!
