This site has provided a lot of useful information about windows maintaiance and repairment.
After reading posts in this site, there are still several question about replacing the spiral balance of the window shown in the picture. The spiral shoe is a J like hook attached to the end of the spiral. It is difficult to take it out of clip. Questions are
1). do I need to remove weather strip (the black part)?
2). Do I need to bent the hook down to separate the shoe from clip?
3. If yes to 2), is there a good tool or procedure to do so?
Thanks for your attention.
