I replaced flange shaft and bearings, ordered bearings through Yellow Van Handyman. Also put new door seal in while machine was apart.
Found it easier to lay machine on its back to take drum out. Job took me all day but being retired I didn't mind.Although my wife thought I was crazy to put out that much money on a 5 year old machine, I believe I saved about $500.00 instead of buying a new washer.
A reminder for all handymen, keep screws separate and label where they were taken from.
