Jose B Winter Springs , FL March 14, 2014 Appliance: LG Washer WM2010CW The drum was loose and vibrating when the spinning cycle got activated. I removed the drum and found that the spider was totally broken. Decided to order a new drum with the spider. The item came as expected, only took a couple of days, replace it and voila, a got a washer fixed. Just want to mention that because of that problem, the tub cover and the gasket connected to the door needed to be replaced too because we waited to long to see that there was a problem with the vibration of the drum during the spinning cycle.

John B Huntington , NY October 15, 2016 Appliance: LG Washer WM1812CW Drum was wobbling to point of smoking because of the door rubber gasket burning Ordered everything to do with the drum rotation. Which is Drum with spider arm already mounted (tub assembly/inner), (could not get spider arm bolts off so cut them but couldn't find replacement bolts) both inner & outer bearings and tub seal, door boot gasket and even outer tub seal since machine was totally apart. Watched video and being very handy it was no problem at all. Even if your not that handy you should be able to handle in my opinion. Parts came in 2 days even with holiday weekend.

Robert C Austin , TX May 23, 2018 Appliance: LG Washer WM1814CW Spider arm fractured at the base (all 3 arms) on our LG Tromm front loading washer I followed a couple of Appliance Parts Pros videos that helped me identify the root cause, disassemble the washer, order the parts, how to install the new parts and reassemble. One of the difficult things was getting the replacement door boot gasket clamp back on. It will take two people (four hands) to get it on properly.
