Replaced outer tub assembly shell. AppliancePartsPros Video was outstanding and easy to follow. Removed outer shell prior to ordering replacement. Took about 2-3 hours off and on (ie. washer and dryer were stacked and I was working in a confined space). A lot of time was spent in cleaning up the washer, spyder etc. prior to installation. Washer originally purched December 1997 so it had accumulated lots of dust, dirt, lint. Ordered shell Jan 9th 5:27AM and received it Jan 10th 2:30PM. (For $6.95 Shipping!) Only major dificulty was installing the end of the soap despenser hose in to its housing. Had to use lots of WD-40 and manipulate with screwdriver and finger. All other mechanical parts seemed to be in good condition. Repair cost approximately $270 vs repalcement at $1,000 to $2,000 if both washer and dryer replaced (only room for stackable system).
