Part came super fast. Not sure if I did it exactly to instruction, but went well through the lower plate on my Whirlpool Duet. Big metal clamp was a bit hard, but just my hands and a set of adjustable pliers got it done. One small clamp, a big clamp and a zip tie. Remember to reuse ball in boot. Worked great. Oh and if you wash bras, take out the metal supports in them. Punctured the boot pretty bad. Also, there is a trap drain there. Apparently that needs to be changed once in a while. Yuck.
