Ron for Model Number 11044832200 I have a kenmore 110.44832200 front load washer. The drum just recently started to spin off balance and now has worn away the plastic shoulder on the front of the outer drum, which has created an even larger gap, causing it to knock and be more off balance. I think I need to replace the white plastic front outer drum, but will this correct the problem, or is there something inside that is causing the drum to be off balance and will eventually wear out the new outer drum again? Does the rear outer drum need to be replaced(bearing shot??)Bearing doesnt make any noise. It is all apart and I am capable of handling this repair myself. Thanks.
Answer Ron, Yes the front drum would definitely need to be replaced. What you will want to determine is whether the issue is the spinner support on the inner tub being broken or if it is not broken then the tub bearings are bad and would need a new rear outer tub.

Answer Ron, Yes, you'll need to replace the rear outer tub to replace the bearings which are worn and allowing the tub to "wobble. you also want to check the spin basket shaft and support arms WPW10250573 make sure there are no cracks or breaks in the arms and the supports are still firmly attached to the basket. Then replace the remaining parts as needed. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Friday, May 2, 2014
