Help! :wall:
I am in need of a surface element burner for a GE IJ408W1N3 (Liberator) electric range, circa 1956.

It is a 6 inch burner, 3 wire, attached trim ring, which needs to have an open center space for a sensor to poke up through it.

The other burners can use currently available burners (i.e. WB30X356) since they don't need to have the center opening. I'm told the part I am looking for was discontinued by GE.

Any ideas of where I can find this part? I don't know the part number of this discontinued part--if anyone can look up the old part number, that might help.

Any alternatives? I'm thinking I may need to alter the framework of a WB30X356 to create the center opening. Or, what company actually makes this burner elements?

Arrrggghhhh!
