I used the excellent video on your site to disassemble and reassemble my LG washing machine. My machine was a bit different from the one in the video, but I was able to figure out what to do. The main disassembly technique difference I had with the video was that I used a thin jaw, wire stripping set of pliers to squeeze the shock absorber plug tabs. The main difficulty I had was undoing the steel bolts that go through the side of the SS tub into the cast aluminum spider. I almost 'rounded' the hex head on two bolts, but then used a plumbers blow torch to heat up the aluminum and the subsequent expansion loosened the bolts. I replaced the spider and the bearing and tub seals. My biggest screw up was not connecting the tub air pressure tube to the sensor. Upon starting my first post fix wash, the tub began to fill and fill, so I stopped the machine, drained the tub and then studied the parts schematic diagrams and connected the tube to the sensor. Four washes later we are not only cleaner, but happy we were not cleaned out by a service visit... Thanks! I am now on a personal crusade against LG for them to compensate people for the new spiders. It is a major design flaw, mixing the Al and Fe, particularly in a warm, moist environment.
