Springs in wood window sashes

Question

Hello. We have a house from 1962 with double hung wood sashes that can be removed. They run on aluminum tracks and are held up by springs. Some of these springs are weak and the sashes fall down. Can we get replacement parts?

For this kind of project, you are going to need all new jamb liners, which is unfortunately not something our company can supply. Being that you have wood sashes, I suggest contacting a local mill work that still makes wood windows. They may be able to make new jamb liners for you using the old sashes as a size reference.
