Whirlpool Washer GHW9100LW2 Shakes and moves

The Shock Absorber is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. This component is essential for reducing vibrations and stabilizing the washer drum during operation, particularly during the spin cycle. It helps to absorb shocks and minimize excessive movement, ensuring the washing machine runs smoothly and quietly.

Note: The unit requires a quantity of 4. Package includes 1 only; order as needed.

Symptoms of a failing Shock Absorber include:

• Excessive shaking or vibrating of the washing machine, especially during the spin cycle
• Loud banging or thumping noises during operation
• The washing machine moving or "walking" across the floor
• Visible damage or wear to the shock absorber

Causes of a bad shock absorber can include wear and tear from regular use, heavy or unbalanced loads that put extra strain on the absorbers, or physical damage from impacts or mishandling.

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and some Kenmore models.

The Drive Pulley is an OEM replacement part specific to Whirlpool washing machines. It is a toothed wheel component located inside the washer cabinet that functions with the belt to rotate the wash drum. The drive pulley provides the rotational force needed to agitate clothes and turbulent water during cycle operation.

Causes of a faulty drive pulley include normal wear of the plastic material from extended years of operation.

Symptoms include:

• Abnormal noises (squealing or screeching sounds) emanating from within the washer cabinet
• Slow or weak drum motion, even on high agitation settings
• Premature belt wear due to slipping of the drive pulley teeth
• Visible cracks or splitting in the pulley surface

This genuine OEM part is also compatible with select Maytag, KitchenAid, and other washer brands.

This outer tub is the washer's sealed outer container that holds the inner tub and water during wash cycles, restoring the cabinet's water containment and structural support for the wash basket. What it does

• Restores proper containment so the washer can fill and drain without pooling or leaking
• Eliminates rubbing/metal-on-metal noises caused when the inner tub contacts a warped outer tub
• Provides the mounting surface for seals, suspension/shock components, and the inner wash basket

• One outer tub

• Disconnect power and water supply before starting; turn off the breaker and shut off water valves
• Drain the washer and remove the cabinet and inner tub per OEM instructions before fitting the outer tub
• Heavy component — use two people and proper lifting technique to avoid injury or damage
• Inspect and replace related seals, bearings, or fasteners as recommended by the OEM for a complete repair
