Trouble installing S795 balances

Friend
We were directed to the 795s, which we ordered. Unfortuantely you can't slide them into our window frames. There is only a 1/2" gap. Is there a solution to make these work? Or are they not the right type and we need a different style?
 
We followed the crossbow balance conversion video and no luck. They are just a tiny bit too wide.

Hello there! I see that you have been in touch with our customer service team regarding your inquiry. In most cases, the Series 795 can replace the old Crossbow balance style. However, in some instances, such as yours, the window track is too small for a channel balance. Your window was designed to use the rod-style balance, which means it is not typically meant to work with a channel balance like the S795. We consider it a fortunate coincidence that the Series 795 fits into the window track in other cases. Unfortunately, it seems that your window channel is simply too small for this option. I sincerely apologize that we cannot offer a suitable replacement.
