Description

This suspension rod and spring assembly supports the washer's tub assembly and controls movement during agitation and spin. Replacing a fatigued rod helps reduce vibration and banging, restoring smoother operation and helping prevent out-of-balance interruptions.

• Suspends and centers the tub assembly within the cabinet
• Dampens motion to minimize vibration and noise during spin
• Helps prevent the tub from striking the cabinet during high-speed cycles
• Worn rods/springs can cause shaking, banging, or a tub that leans to one side

What's included: One suspension rod with attached spring assembly. Installation notes:

• Disconnect power and turn off water before servicing; wear gloves and eye protection
• Access the suspension; support the tub before removing any rod
• Carefully relieve spring tension and seat the new rod fully in upper and lower mounts
• Re-level the washer and run a test cycle to verify smooth operation
