The agitator was already loose, so it was easy to remove. The screw holding the agitator coupler was also easy to remove with a socket and ratchet. Installing the new coupler was very easy and the agitator snapped right into the coupler. The job took just about 5 minutes. I have been replacing various components on my 20+ year old GE Profile washer over the past 10 yearsand this was the easiest repair by far.
