John R Chesterfield , MI January 24, 2026 Appliance: Model GUD27GSSJOWW Ge washer suspension rods Like a Dungeons-&-Dragons' adventure which was designed by a heartless and cruel Dungeon Master, my son and I were tasked with a foreboding journey into the Dragon's Lair. The beast was hurt, all four of her legs (suspension rods) were weak from age and needed to be healed. My son is a Paladin with great healing powers, and I knew that our mission would be successful, but each blistering step of our journey was into the wind and grueling because these lands were never meant to be traversed by that of mortal men. For our journey, we prepared by researching the land. We looked to AdvancedPartsPros.com and looked at the wisdom of those who had gone before us. Not everything was useful but among the many words we discovered wisdom (the OEM part numbers were different between the front and the back suspension rods) that allowed us to have the proper gear at the ready. However, the words of the adventurers who had journeyed before us, while sincere, could never prepare us for the horrors that we would encounter along the way. For instance, before we could replace the legs of the great beast, we would have to do surgery on her. Do you know that dragon scales do not like being taken apart? Once through the tough outer shell of the beast we had to get under her belly and carefully remove her gut from her colon. Do you have any idea what level of hell freshly opened dragon bowels smell like? Then because she was standing upright (ours is a stacked washer & dryer unit) we had to tip her guts out in order to reach around her innards and physically touch her legs to apply the healing spells of curation to each. Fellow travelers, DO NOT BE FOOLED, this journey was not easy, it was not fun, many times we thought all was lost, but my son was not to be bested by the mighty beast, and he prevailed in the end! Today, the mighty beast walks strong on her healed legs, all for less than $100 and a few hours of our time. Thank you AdvancedPartsPros.com. Read More...

Brian R Sugar Land , TX June 09, 2021 Appliance: General Electric Laundry Center GUD27ESSJ1WW Washer (GE stackable) shaking during spin cycle Replaced all 4 (front/rear) tub support rods- front 2 are fairly straightforward. Rear 2- very difficult. Some common sense redesign would make this job much easier, like access panels in the rear cover. This is not a job for one person. If you are going to attempt to replace rear support rods, it will require 2 people and take approximately 4-5 hours.
