The Suspension Rod Kit is an OEM part for Whirlpool washers. This kit contains the suspension rods that connect the outer tub to the base of the washing machine, providing support and stability during the wash cycles. Each rod measures 23-1/4"L x 1-1/2" in diameter, designed to handle heavy loads.
Symptoms of worn or damaged suspension rods may include:
- Excessive vibration or shaking during spin cycles
- Loud banging or thumping noises
- Leaks due to increased stress on tub components
- The washing machine walking or moving excessively
Causes of suspension rod failure can include normal wear over time, impact or damage from overloading, or improper leveling and installation.
This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore washer models.

Tub was banging against the side of the washer Chris Z. • Lewisburg , TN • August 11, 2014
