Spiral balance replacement
Window is a non tilt that measures 22 3/8" high x 41 7/8" wide and weighs approx 12lbs. The spiral tube measures at 21" and is 9/16"(5/8). Has a foot bracket like your #32. Would this require the red or the blue spiral balance for proper lift!Thank you Dan

Spiral Balance Help
I'm attaching some photos of my spiral balances from 1961 aluminum windows. Can you tell me what the best replacement is for the balance itself as well as for the shoes? Note the clip on plastic that keeps the window in the channel. Thanks!

Replace sash bracket.
I have single-hung/? Side mounted sash brackets that screw in from the side inwards. It seems I'd need to take the sash out of the frame to replace it. How should I do that?

36c balance channel
Looking for a 36C product code S770-36. The one I'm replacing attaches at the top with a little bar, the one in your catalog uses a screw. Would I just remove the hanger now in place and use a screw for this one? Thanks for your help.
