Customer Questions and Answers for Suspension Rod Kit by Whirlpool

The Suspension Rod Kit is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. This kit includes four suspension rods that support the washer tub and help absorb vibrations during the spin cycle. These rods ensure the tub remains balanced, providing smooth and quiet operation.

You should replace the suspension rods if they become worn or damaged. Over time, heavy loads, unbalanced loads, or general wear and tear can cause the rods to lose their ability to stabilize the tub effectively. This can lead to excessive vibrations and noise during the wash cycle.

Symptoms of a bad suspension rod kit include:

• Excessive shaking or vibrating during the wash cycle
• Loud banging or knocking noises
• Washer tub not staying centered
• Washer moving or walking during operation

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