For the whole week our LG washer was smoking at high spin so I have to put it to low spin only.. I'm not mechanically inclined with basic tool knowledge. I research the net and luck was with me because your site was the first I got...I took courage following the video and it was not easy but I persevered with the help of a cousin, took 3 hours reach take out and open the tub finding the disintegrated spider. This must be the culprit as explained by your video... ordering the part was very easy and the parts arrived in 4 days. Putting back the parts was a bit easy until we reach the gasket and the retainer spring, we don't have those spring pliers and although the video make it look easy, it was not easy at all. Took us 3 people holding down the spring, stretching carefully fitting it so as not to tear the gasket. The outer gasket spring was difficult too but with patience we were able to put it back... another 3 hours to put everything back but we were happy....learned not to use too much soap... the instructional video did the most wonderful thing...
