Kenmore / Sears Washer Dryer Combo Power Nut Or Trunnion

This trunnion support fits the appliance's rotating assembly to stabilize and guide the drum or door hinge, restoring proper alignment and smooth operation. Durable replacement designed to match the original mounting points. What it does

• Supports and locates the drum or hinged assembly to prevent wobble and misalignment
• Reduces rubbing, scraping, or grinding noises caused by a worn support
• Helps keep the door/drum tracking true so the appliance opens/closes and spins correctly
• Common symptom: visible sagging, uneven rotation, or unusual noise during operation

• One (1) support (trunnion) as shown

• Disconnect power (and gas if applicable) before servicing; follow all safety precautions
• Remove panels or drum/door per service manual to access the trunnion; retain mounting hardware if reuse is intended
• Inspect adjacent bearings, seals, and mounting tabs for wear and replace as needed
• Test appliance on a short cycle after installation to ensure proper alignment and quiet operation

The trunnion is the hub that mounts the washer's inner tub to the drive shaft. Replacing a worn hub restores a solid, centered connection so the basket spins smoothly without wobble, slip, or grinding. What it does:

• Secures and centers the spin basket on the drive shaft for balanced rotation
• Transfers drive torque to the inner tub during spin
• Helps maintain basket alignment to reduce vibration
• Typical symptoms of failure: loose/wobbly tub, scraping or grinding noises, poor or no spin, frequent out-of-balance events

• 1 trunnion

• Disconnect power and water before service; wear gloves and eye protection
• Access the hub by removing top/access parts, then the agitator/wash plate and inner-tub fasteners
• Clean the shaft and mating surfaces; seat the new trunnion fully and tighten fasteners evenly in a crisscross pattern
• Inspect related parts (tub seal, bolts, bearing) while open and replace if worn; run a short test cycle to ensure smooth spin
