My windows go up but will not stay up. Do you have a spring like the attached that will work to hold the windows up.

thank you

Sounds like you need a new spiral balance for a tilt window. You want either our Series 900 (3/8" diameter tube) or the Series 600 (9/16" diameter tube). You'll have to measure the diameter of your tube to confirm the best replacement. You may also find the 75-006 tool helpful for installation.
