Frigidaire Washer 6506-87D Leaking

This tub seal kit replaces a worn or damaged tub gasket to restore the appliance's watertight seal and reduce leaks. It's a direct-replacement style kit used during tub or pump repairs to help maintain proper sealing. What it does:

• Replaces the tub sealing components that prevent water from escaping the tub area
• Helps stop common leak symptoms like puddling or water on the floor near the appliance
• Restores a secure seal after tub or pump disassembly to reduce moisture-related damage
• Useful when service shows visible gasket wear, cracks, or hardening

• Disconnect power and water supply before starting any repair
• Drain the appliance and remove any obstructing panels to access the tub area
• Follow the OEM service manual for disassembly and correct seal orientation

The Spin Bearing Washer is an OEM part for Frigidaire washing machines. Situated inside the transmission housing, this thin metal washer acts as a subsurface support for the belt pulley bearing. The spin-bearing washer facilitates smooth, balanced rotation essential for agitated and spun wash cycles.

Causes of a bad spin-bearing washer include wear and fatigue from years of successive rotations, potentially allowing excessive movement between housing components.

Symptoms of a bad spin-bearing washer involve:

• Vibration or shaking noises coming from inside the washer cabinet
• Belt slippage wasting energy by inefficiently spinning loads
• Increased friction resulting in longer cycle times for spins
• Failure of belts or other components from unsupported bearing

This OEM Frigidaire part can also be used on Electrolux, Frigidaire, Gibson, Kelvinator, Westinghouse, and Sears/Kenmore.

The trunnion is the hub that mounts the washer's inner tub to the drive shaft. Replacing a worn hub restores a solid, centered connection so the basket spins smoothly without wobble, slip, or grinding. What it does:

• Secures and centers the spin basket on the drive shaft for balanced rotation
• Transfers drive torque to the inner tub during spin
• Helps maintain basket alignment to reduce vibration
• Typical symptoms of failure: loose/wobbly tub, scraping or grinding noises, poor or no spin, frequent out-of-balance events

• 1 trunnion

• Disconnect power and water before service; wear gloves and eye protection
• Access the hub by removing top/access parts, then the agitator/wash plate and inner-tub fasteners
• Clean the shaft and mating surfaces; seat the new trunnion fully and tighten fasteners evenly in a crisscross pattern
• Inspect related parts (tub seal, bolts, bearing) while open and replace if worn; run a short test cycle to ensure smooth spin
