Kenmore / Sears Washer Dryer Combo Spring Parts

The Tub Suspension Pads are an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. These pads are designed to provide cushioning and stability to the washer tub, reducing vibration and noise during the wash and spin cycles. This kit contains three pads, each 2 1/4 inches long

Over time, the tub suspension pads can wear out or deteriorate, especially with frequent use or heavy loads. Exposure to harsh chemicals or unbalanced loads can also cause the pads to lose their effectiveness.

Symptoms of bad tub suspension pads include:

• Excessive vibration or shaking during operation
• Loud banging or thumping noises during the spin cycle
• The washer moving or "walking" across the floor
• Uneven or poorly balanced loads leading to inefficient washing

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

The Counterbalance Spring Kit is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. This kit includes springs that help balance and stabilize the washer drum during the spin cycle, preventing excessive movement and vibration. The counterbalance spring kit includes 3 counterbalance springs. The counterbalance spring kit includes 3 counterbalance springs.

Over time, counterbalance springs can wear out, lose tension, or become damaged due to repeated use and the strain of heavy loads. A faulty counterbalance spring can lead to instability and increased noise during operation, affecting the washer's performance.

Symptoms of a bad counterbalance spring kit include:

• Excessive shaking or vibrating during the spin cycle
• Loud banging or thumping noises
• The washing machine moving or "walking" during operation
• Unevenly distributed loads or off-balance errors

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

The Suspension Spring Kit is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire front-loading washing machines. These suspension springs are positioned at the top front of the washer, underneath the tub, to help support the weight of the drum during operation.

Over many cleaning cycles, suspension springs can wear down and lose their ability to dampen vibration.

Symptoms of bad suspension springs include:

• Excessive shaking or rattling of the washing machine
• Loud banging or knocking noises coming from inside the washer
• The tub moving excessively during washing and spinning

It is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and some Kenmore models.

The Suspension Spring is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. This part helps balance the tub during the spin cycle, ensuring smooth operation and reducing vibrations. By supporting the tub, the suspension springs absorb and dampen the motion as the washer agitates and spins clothes dry.  

Causes of a bad Suspension Spring can include stretching or weakening over time, rust or corrosion, or breakage due to heavy loads or excessive vibration.  

Symptoms of a bad Suspension Spring include:

• The washing machine vibrating more than usual
• Unusual noises during the spin cycle
• The tub sagging or tilting
• The washer "walking" or moving during operation

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.

This genuine replacement spring restores proper tension and smooth movement in the affected mechanism, helping your appliance operate reliably. Replacing a weakened or broken spring can reduce noise and correct misalignment caused by lost tension.

• Maintains tension and provides return force for connected levers, brackets, or linkages
• Helps keep components in position and minimizes excess play or rattling
• A weakened, stretched, or broken spring can cause poor engagement or inconsistent operation
• Common signs include parts not returning to rest, excess slack, or new noises from the area

• Disconnect power; also shut off water supply
• Note the spring's hook orientation and routing; take a reference photo before removal
• Control the spring with pliers and wear gloves/eye protection to avoid snap-back injuries
• Inspect related brackets/retainers and replace any worn components to ensure proper tension

Keep your dryer tumbling smoothly by restoring proper belt tension. This idler spring attaches to the idler arm and maintains tension on the drive belt so the drum turns reliably without slipping or squealing. What it does:

• Applies constant tension to the idler pulley to keep the drive belt tight around the drum and motor
• Helps resolve a drum that won't turn or tumbles intermittently
• Addresses belt issues such as slipping off, appearing loose, or premature breakage from low tension
• Can reduce squealing/chirping from the idler area caused by belt slip

• 1 idler spring

• Disconnect power; for gas dryers, also shut off the gas supply
• Access the idler assembly by removing the front or lower access panel per your model
• Relieve belt tension, unhook the old spring from the idler arm/frame, and install the new spring in the same orientation and holes
• Rotate the drum by hand to check smooth operation before reassembly

This spring restores tension to the door lock mechanism so the latch returns to its proper position after operation. A worn or missing spring can cause a loose latch, difficulty locking, or a door that won't stay secured during a cycle.

• Returns the door lock latch to its resting position
• Helps ensure the door locks securely during operation
• Symptoms can include a floppy/loose latch, intermittent lock errors, or door not staying latched
• Also helps resolve issues where the door won't unlock smoothly

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Access the door lock assembly per your model's service procedure
• Note spring orientation during removal; install the new spring in the same positions
• Latch operation by gently opening/closing the door before reassembling

This is a suspension spring for select washers. It supports and stabilizes the wash tub during spin and agitation to reduce vibration and noise, helping the machine run smoothly.

• Supports the tub within the cabinet to control movement
• Helps reduce excessive vibration, banging, or walking during spin
• Addresses symptoms like out-of-balance loads, noise, or shaking
• Loss of tension, stretching, or breakage can require replacement

• Unplug the washer and shut off water supply before repair
• Access typically requires removing the top or front panel; support the tub to relieve spring tension
• Wear gloves and eye protection; springs are under tension
• Replace any damaged or missing suspension components in pairs or as required.

This tension spring provides the restoring force needed for a refrigerator/freezer door or internal mechanism, helping components return to their proper position for reliable operation and alignment. What it does

• Provides tension to return a door, hinge, or actuator to its resting position
• Helps prevent door sagging, misalignment, or incomplete closure when installed correctly
• Restores proper feel and resistance to a moving component
• Can stop intermittent contact or binding caused by a worn or broken spring

• One replacement spring

• Disconnect power and empty or secure the area before starting any repair
• Handle with care and use safety glasses and gloves; springs can release suddenly
• Note orientation and attachment points before removal so you can install the new spring the same way
