Symptoms of a bad spring mounting bracket may include:

• Excessive shaking or movement of the appliance during operation
• Increased noise or rattling sounds during the wash or drying cycle
• Unbalanced loads, causing the drum to tilt or not spin properly

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.
