Do-It-Yourself Story

I replaced the brake rotor and brake stator. Since these parts are integral to the snubber ring, I replaced it too. Though I'm a master auto mechanic, I've never worked on a washing machine before. But now that I'm retired, I've got the time and wanted to save the labor cost. So, I just watched the video on YouTube on the snubber replacement, which took me step by step for that. I added a few steps to the whole process to get the brake rotor out. One suggestion I have for others is to just take the transmission pulley off. It makes the whole job much less frustrating and adds less than a minute. I know I save a good 20 minutes of frustration by removing the pulley. The parts I ordered fit perfectly!! What a great experience. I just wish my wife was a bit more appreciative. Of course, she wanted a new machine! I told her it was like new!! Hahahahaha!
