John, the lower dishrack for your model is part number [W10139223]. It will have only the 6 wheels, as the manufacturer only has this available because it is an updated version of its 8 wheel predecessor.

Izzy, Yes the rack includes the rollers/wheels, but it does not come with the WPY912709 tine Clip tine clip(s) or the WPW10116789 Tine Sleeve(s). If the original clips and sleeves aren't available or if they're damaged you would want to order at least two(2) of each. All the parts needed are in stock and available at this time. Thanks,

Danek for Model Number DWU8750AAX

I ordered the lower rack (WP99002572) for my dishwasher. It fits but has a different configuration than my current lower rack. The lower rack came with two sets of tines with no instruction as to how to install them. I went through all of the current version questions and answers without any of them hitting this version. Would you please let me know what parts I need to order to secure the two sets of tines and direct me to some instructions. I looked at the repair video for tine clip WPY912709 http://www.appliancepartspros.com/whirlpool-clip-adjustable-peg-wpy912709-ap6024250.html and the tines in this video do not match the tines that come with lower rack AP6014443 http://www.appliancepartspros.com/whirlpool-dishrack-wp99002572-ap6014443.html Thanks for your help! Danek

Danek, There should be clips that hold the tines in place. The clips will hook to the bottom of the lower rack and the tines will clip into it.

Mrspolly for Model Number DWU7400BAX

I was pleased to find this forum as I also bought a WP99002572 replacement bottom rack. The one I got came with wheels and 2 extra long tine pieces and no instructions on what to do with them. In reading all the comments I find that Whirlpool no longer makes the kind of adjustable tines that were on my original and that if you got the two long tines, they were included with the rack by mistake! What to do? Hubby and I played around with them and decided that they fit best in the right back corner, running from back to front alongside existing grid wires. We tied each in place with 3 small zip ties. Voila! This area is wide enough that I can now put luncheon sized plates there. Hope this helps.

MrsPolly, Thanks for your update, but, the AP6014443 lower rack does include the adjustable tines, per the factory " Part Comes With Only New Tines In Some Cases Cust. Original Fold Down Tines Can Be Reused. If You Need Tine Clips These Are Sold Separately " . If you'd prefer to have the tine clips instead of the wire ties the part numbers are WPY912709 / WPY912709 Clip, and WPW10116789 / WPW10116789 Sleeve, you'd need two(2) of each. Thanks Again,
