replacement window balancer

Question

I'm trying to find the correct window balancer to replace one that broke. It is 14" and the only stamp on the side says "13 2 CO CALDWELL" (could possibly be CD). Pictures of both ends are also attached. I tried to select the correct part myself but I could not identify the subtle differences in some of the end pieces that had different part #s.
Thank you,
Curtis

Hey, thanks for posting. I've narrowed this down to two possible channel balance Series: either our Series 380 or our Series 385.

Now, as you can see, the only difference between these two Series is their bottom shoe. The Series 380 uses the 15-005 while the Series 385 uses the 15-004. I can't quite tell what you have based on your pictures, though. Please carefully compare their dimensions to your own hardware and see which is a better match.
