Hello, Tim. This is an old rod type balance that isn't made anymore. Fortunately, we can still help. Can you just confirm that the spring is 1/2" in diameter?

If it is, then you can use our Series 795 as a replacement. The video below will go through it step by step, so I highly recommend watching it.
