I replaced the tub bearing and shaft and tube assembly. The only hiccup was hub nut was ceased on the shaft and wouldn't release with a wrench. Had to cut the hub nut off to proceed with the repair. All replacement parts fit and the washer reassembly went as expected. Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 2+ hours
