How to Troubleshoot & Replace Whirlpool AP5263280 / W10400895 Tub Centering Spring Kit

DYI, Parts were exact fit and the ordering and delivery were excellent. 

I watched your repair video and then replaced the suspension rods. 

Put on 4 new tub support shocks and installed 4 new springs from shocks to top of tub support ring.The springs were missing from the factory and the shaft on the shocks was rusted. 

I took it apart and noticed that the centering springs were missing, I inspected the suspension and rods it didn't appear to be anything wrong with them except the suspension springs felt weak so I replaced them. Also just to be on the safe side, I also recalibrated the washer, now the washer is running great again ?? 

Replaced 2 tub centering springs. 

Added springs to washer tub 

Replaced suspension rods and springs. Video was great. There is some lubricant on the new rods making grasp (even with gloves) a bit difficult on reinstall of rear rods. My tip would be to wipe mid point of the new rods with a 409 cleaner rag prior. 

AFTER WATCHING THE REPAIR VIDEOS , AND COMPARING TO MY PROBLEM , I DECIDED TO ORDER RECOMMENDED PARTS . I ORDERED THE AGITATOR DOGS JUST TO BE SAFE , WITH THAT I ORDERED THE SPLUTCH CAM KIT . AFTER LOOKING THE MACHINE OVER , I REALIZED THAT IT NEVER HAD TUB CENTERING SPRINGS ,SO I PURCHASED THEM ALSO . GUESS WHAT , EVERYTHING WENT SMOOTH , AND NOW IT SOUNDS SO QUITE . 

I replaced the suspension rods and added 4 centering springs. 

I ordered suspension bearing kit, they were only 4 dollars for 4 of them and 4 springs. The washers don’t come with springs they were only 6 dollars. All you need to fix it is your hands no tools. It shows you how to fix it when you buy from the appliance parts pros web site. It will save you lots of money to do it yourself.
