Thx,

The windows were manufactured by Clearview Windows from Santa Clarita, CA. Clearview is now out of business. I don't know if Clearview is the original manufacturer or outsourced them to someone like Champion. Thank you for your help.

Thanks for posting. Before we can offer an applicable replacement balance, we need a bit more information regarding your bottom shoe.

First, what is the length of your metal channel, in inches?

Next, please refer to the following chart and pick out your show from the examples shown. Keep in mind that although the difference of a fraction of an inch may not seem like much, it is in fact vital to the operation of your balance. Please get as exact a measurement as you can before deciding which shoe you have.
