How to Troubleshoot & Replace Whirlpool AP6010170 / WP64065 Suspension Spring Bracket

Replaced 2 springs and brackets. Also replace rear legs and front legs and re leveled. Works fine. 

Replaced Suspension spring. Also replaced spring brackets as at least one was bent. I was going to replece the suspension pads while I had the machine open, however I received the wrong pads so I put the old pads back in. Was simple after reviewing the videos. 

Replace switch last after cabinet was removed, thanks to the videos the task was a lot easier to do. Replace the 4 springs, bought the brackets just in case, but did not need. The washer still shakes on spin cycle without a load, but not as bad. I think someone in the pass overloaded the washer. I probably should have purchase those nylon bushings, which requires to remove the tub, I watch the video. Plus I spent more time cleaning the upper ring and plastic tub. 

Replaced spout and hose, and also replaced all springs and brackets. APPLIANCE PARTS PROS made it very easy with the videos and pictures they have available. Did all work in about one hr.with simple tools. 

Had replaced all rusty hose clamps, cleaned all the various valves, and checked all around but couldn't find any leaks. My wife thought the internal drum seemed looser than usual. I found a Youtube video on broken tub springs. Ordered these 3 small and 1 long spring along with 2 short and 1 long replacement brackets. And 3 of the spring retainers. Replaced all these parts. The long spring attaches to a hole in the base frame that had rusted out so it had no tension. The other 3 springs were weak and had a lot of wear on the ends that attached to the frame and the retainers. Was definitely the right way to go and replace all these parts. Then an important step after that was to relieve the washing machine. Our 2 front feet were loose - lock nuts were not tight. And the level was off. All works great again. Parts were made in USA, marked Whirlpool on the bags, and of excellent quality. Brackets used 1 screw and a tab instead of a second screw like the original brackets. The parts are an exact fit. I'll use this company again for sure. Their videos are great also. 

Replaced suspension springs. 

Replaced damaged bracket and another that was still intact but also rusted as a preventative measure. Also replaced three springs. And bracket screw. Had difficulty removing screw holding damaged bracket as was also rusted and eroded. 

The washing machine would not spin during the rinse cycle. The Clutch was worn out and the coupler needed replacing too. After fixing these issues I replaced some brackets and springs that showed. some rust. Sanded, applied rust reformer, and repainted the washing machine cabinet and it looks brand new. All parts except paint came from AppliancePartsPros. Prices for parts were very reasonable and they fit exactly in place. APP made the fix easy. 

I replace the Agitators dogs first and then I took the washer apart and replaced all the brackets and springs. Just needed a pair pliers and a 1/4" socket and ratchet and extension. 

Replaced all springs and the bars that hold them in place. I appreciate the “how-to” videos and the parts diagram on the web site. It helps me recognize a self help project compared to one that requires a professional repair. Thank you
