The Motor Spring is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool top-loading washing machines. This spring applies proper tension to the agitator assembly during wash cycles.

Causes of a bad motor spring can include damage from unintended impacts or fatigue after extended use. Over time, constant movement may cause the spring to weaken.

Symptoms of a bad motor spring include:

• Inadequate cleaning as clothes don't tumble vigorously  
• Excessive noise or vibration from the off-balance agitator 
• Stalling or failure of the agitator to rotate fully

This OEM Whirlpool replacement is also compatible with some Kenmore, Admiral, Estate, and Roper top-load washer models as well. 

10-24 x 1/2 inch mounting screw for securing appliance panels, handles, brackets, and internal components. Replace lost, stripped, or damaged screws.

Drive motor isolator.

Motor plate isolator.

Plastic push-on pulley that mounts on the washer motor shaft to drive the belt. Replace if cracked, melted, worn, or no longer grips the shaft securely.

This motor isolator is a rubber mounting that cushions and secures the washer motor, reducing vibration and noise during spin cycles and helping protect the motor and chassis from premature wear. What it does:

• Cushions the motor to reduce vibration and minimize rattle and noise during operation
• Keeps the motor properly positioned to prevent rubbing or misalignment
• Helps protect motor and surrounding components from shock and movement
• Common symptom linkage: excessive vibration, loud noise during spin, or visible motor shifting

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any work.
• This part mounts between the motor and chassis; access typically requires tilting or removing the washer cabinet or accessing the underside.
• Inspect adjacent mounts and fasteners; replace any worn hardware and use the exact OEM part for proper fit.

This locknut is a small threaded retaining nut used to secure rotating and stationary appliance components, helping keep assemblies tight and stable during operation. It prevents parts from loosening and reduces vibration-related issues. What it does:

• Secures shafts, pulleys, or fittings to prevent axial movement
• Keeps assemblies fastened under normal vibration and load
• Helps stop wobble, grinding, or part separation caused by a loose connection
• Works with the matching threaded stud, shaft, or fitting for a proper hold

• Disconnect power and follow appliance safety procedures before servicing
• Use the matching thread size and engage threads fully; hand-start before tightening
• Tighten securely without overtightening; use the correct driver or socket for the nut
• Inspect mating threads and replace if damaged

Connects suspension spring to washer frame to support the tub. Replace if hook is broken, worn, or missing to restore proper tub suspension and alignment.

A stabilizer bracket that secures and supports internal components to reduce movement and rattle during operation. Helps restore stable alignment so the appliance runs quieter and more reliably. What it does:

• Provides structural support to help keep assemblies aligned and reduce excessive movement
• Dampens vibration and minimizes knocking or rattling noises tied to loose components
• Restores proper fit where a worn or broken bracket allowed shifting or misalignment
• Works as a repair for symptoms like intermittent noise, excess vibration, or parts that sag or shift

• Disconnect power (and water if appliance-specific) before beginning any repair
• Basic hand tools are usually required; refer to your model's service manual for exact steps
• Inspect surrounding parts for wear while replacing the bracket

Replace a worn rear self-leveling leg to restore a stable, level appliance. This foot supports the back of the cabinet and automatically compensates for floor unevenness to help reduce vibration, rocking, and noise during operation.

• Supports and self-levels the rear of the cabinet to maintain stability on uneven floors
• Helps address wobbling/rocking, excessive vibration, rattling or "walking," and an appliance that won't sit level
• Replaces a rear leg that is missing, cracked, or worn
• Promotes smoother operation by helping the unit sit properly level

• Disconnect power; if applicable, turn off the water supply
• With assistance, carefully tilt the appliance to access the rear base
• Remove the damaged rear leg from its mount and install the new leg, ensuring it seats fully
• Lower the unit, verify level with a bubble level, and adjust front legs as needed for final leveling

The Screw is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool appliances. The precise threads allow screws to join or assemble other parts securely. 

Causes of a bad screw can include stripping, cracking, or loss of threads due to repeated installation/removal over time. Corrosion is also possible depending on environmental conditions.

Symptoms of a bad screw include: 

• Loosened or detached components that were once fastened 
• Reduced structural integrity of connections or assemblies
• Potential safety hazards if critical parts become dislodged

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.
