I am replacing an old style crossbow balance 28" long With a new channel balance series 775. My window is 26 pounds. I believe I need the 28D with 1 1/4 shoe. I believe I need to replace the old style pivot bar? But cannot find a match. Any suggestions would be appreciated thanks Dan

Thanks for reaching out to us! I don't believe the Series 775 can replace this balance. This balance has its own style shoe attached to the cord, while your shoe is an entirely different component.

Do you have a photo of the piece of the balance that connects to the shoe? It should be some kind of anchor or clip. Seeing that would allow me to verify what you have.

As for the pivot bar and shoe, those would be our 26-271 and 15-219, respectively. I just recommend reviewing our dimensions to confirm.

Hi Tom thanks for getting back to me. The 15?219 pivot shoe looks exactly like what I have. I do not have a very good picture of the clip it is just a metal rectangle with a hole in it that the string ties too. I will send that picture with some others hopefully you can identify how I may be able to fix my balances thanks Dan

Thank you! That picture is actually perfect, I can see the exact clip I was hoping to see. The balance you want to use to replace this is our Series 770. This has the same terminal clip at the end of the cord and will be fully compatible with the 15-219 shoe.

Hi Tom,I just wanted to say thank you for the great service and getting back to me. I'm replacing The balance on six windows so you saved me a lot of time and Aggravation by not ordering the correct balance the first time. I will have more windows in the future and will certainly reach out. Thanks again DAN
