Tom In Indy for Model Number Front loader washer My washer grinds during spin cycle. I pulled rotor and see that the rotor is stripped. Do I replace rotor only or can I also replace the piece attached to the machine that is inserted into the center of the rotor that has the ridges that fit with grooves inside center of rotor? I am not sure if the piece inserted into center of rotor is worn or not by looking at it. Does this part usually wear out with stripped rotor? If so, what is this part called and is it difficult to replace?
