Brad for Model Number DU8000XB1

I looked up DU8000XB1 to find the upper dish rack for my whirlpool, and saw that #8 on the diagram is for part number AP3096553. When I went to the page for AP3096553, and input DU8000XB1 into the appliance compatibility tool on that page, it said that the AP3096553 upper rack is not compatible with the DU8000XB1. Is the AP3096553 upper rack indeed compatible with DU8000XB1? Thanks!

Rob, No, there is no diffuser/nozzle mounted to the upper dishwasher rack. The WP8268825 Tower Protector is attached to the lower rack to keep articles from interfering with the "pop up" nozzle, so the spray nozzle at the top of the nozzle can properly "fan out" and reach and wash the articles on the upper dishwasher rack. Thanks,
