The stamp on this 29" channel balance says 28D. I called a repair shop here in town and they quoted me $55 for the install, etc. but was wondering if it was simple enough to do myself.

spiral balance replacement
Thanks for posting! When measuring your length, make sure to only measure the tube--do not count the tip and the spiral protrusion in your measurements. If your balance still comes out to be 28-1/4", then we do recommend that you go with an even 28" length.
