Hello there!

For the balance stamped "1820", you could have either an S380-19 or S385-19 channel balance. You’ll need to measure as shown below. The Series 380 has a 1" bottom attachment, and the Series 385 has a 1-3/32" attachment. You'll also need a spring strength option of 1820 for this replacement balance. 

As for the balance stamped "1220", can you show us some pictures of the bottom shoe from a different angle? I just need to confirm if it has "wings" or not.

Thank you!

It's difficult to say from these pictures. Do both of these fittings have 'wings' like the other balance stamped "1820"?
