The Suspension Rod Kit is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool washing machines. They’re designed to help keep the washer balanced. If you’re washing machine is noisy, banging, or “walking”, it may be time to replace your suspension rods.

 Included in the kit:

• 4 suspension rods
• 4 bearings
• 4 bearing cups

The suspension rods in a washing machine can also experience failure for similar reasons as other parts. Overloading the washing machine is a frequent cause of suspension rod failure. The excess weight puts too much stress on the rods, causing them to bend or break. Constant use over time can lead to suspension rod failure as well. The repetitive motion can wear down the components and cause them to lose their structural integrity.

Replace your suspension rods and enjoy peaceful laundry time again! This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.
