Coil and Pivot shoe for BF Rich Double Hung Windows

I'm looking for some pivot shoes to replace some where the tabs that hold the coil have broken. I could also use a couple of coils. The coil style I appear to have is an S160 (tab on the end that clips into the pivot shoe). I'm fine with purchasing a kit containing both a coil and a pivot shoe. The dimensions of the pivot shoes are 1.5" x 1.5" x 0.5", and so are the coils. The coil has the number 8 stamped on it.

Hello,

Unforutnately, we do not carry your exact pivot shoe but if the coil springs have the "T" end like our Series 160, you may be able to use our 15-191. The metal center cam should work with your original pivot bar. Review the width and thickness below to confirm. 

Your coil stamp indicates that you would have a 16-pound sash if the window uses one coil spring on each side. If so, you can use one S160-7 on each side. Thank you!
