Samsung DC97-17417A Washer Drain Hose Assembly With Hudson Washer OEM Part

After some research I discovered the design change Samsung did 3 months after my model was manufactured. Instead of spending $110 on the "redesigned" part I took a good look at it and determined I could disregard the current mounting bracket and order 3 parts to make the conversion with my existing pump, which is working just fine. I did this for about $30 and that includes shipping. Saved $80!!! You'll order the new floor bracket, a hose that has a 90 on it to connect to the drum and another short hose that connects the pump to the exit hose out of the washer. NOTE: don't use the hose rings that are on there. Use actual hose clamps that you can since down tightly witha nut driver. The 3 parts #s you'll need: 1) DC67-00601A (drain hose) 2) DC61-03550A (Pump bracket to mount to floor) 3) DC97-17417A (washer tub drain hose)

First of all, I cannot believe that Samsung would actually think that putting the drain pump on the drum was a GOOD idea. The fix was easy, When I bought the washer off an individual, She told me that she was informed the drain pump needed replaced. So I did that. Pain in the a&* du to the location and trying to secure the bolts. It broke off after a week. I found out that Samsung put out a repair bulletin and a customer service rep from this site emailed it to me. After looking up the parts, I decided that I did not need to spend over $100 for the kit and purchased the necessary parts from APP for $60. So much easier to relocate the pump. Now you cannot even hear the washer run.

Replaced the hose and the part work perfect
