Dennis for Model Number WTW8540BW1 I have the bearing kit and tool and am attempting to do the replacement. However, the rotor bolt is severely stuck. Now I am afraid I've stripped the hex head. Any advice for removing this bolt? I think I'm at the point where I need to use a screw extraction bit, which will definitely ruin the bolt. I have not seen anyone else having this problem. Also, it looks like I cannot get the bolt separately.
Answer Dennis, if a slightly larger allen key will not allow for the removal of the bolt, an extractor would need to be used. Unfortunately, the bolt is not available separately from the rotor 280146. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Thursday, October 21, 2021
