Window pivot bar and tilt cradle parts

Question

I need the pivot bar that was broken off the bottom of both sides of my window. It looks similar to this, but with a different end treatment.

Also, my spring saddle part and barrel part is broken.

the window seems to indicate simonton windows and has SEARS stamped on the latches.

Hello,

You are correct that it looks like you have the old Simonton pivot bar that was discontinued and replaced with the 26-336. Even though it looks different, it should fit in the original pivot shoe, though some customers have found it necessary to grind the round "collar" on the tip of the 26-336 flat.

With that being said, It sounds like your coil balance assembly may also be in need of replacement. If so, I agree that replacing all of the necessary hardware with the parts shown in the video below would be the way to go.
