Could a bad stator make this drum shake violently while on spin cycle?

Answer Hello Don. Feel the inner basket assembly and see if the inner basket feels loose. If so, you need to replace the ball bearings 4280FR4048K and 4280FR4048C and the seal 4036ER2003A. This is the reason you are having the issue with the unit. Usually the stator does not cause this issue.
Can you provide instructions for replacing the stator assembly on an LG WM1814CW washer? A service manual would be great. Thanks!

Answer Hello Gary. Disassemble the back cover.
Remove the bolt.
Pull out the Rotor.
Unscrew the 2 screws from the tub bracket.
Remove the 6 bolts on the stator.
Unplug the 2 connectors from the stator 4417FA1994H.
Reinstall in reverse order. Hope this helps.
