Product Details

Genuine Speedqueen part.

Cross Reference Information

Part Number 38864 replaces AP5689151.

Description

This metal sleeve gear transfers torque between the transmission and agitator/drum assembly so the washer can spin and agitate properly. Replacing a worn sleeve gear restores smooth drive engagement and reduces noise or slipping. What it does:

• Couples the transmission output to the drive shaft, allowing the agitator/tub to rotate.
• Restores proper engagement if the original sleeve is worn, stripped, or causing intermittent drive.
• Helps eliminate grinding, squealing, or slipping related to a failing drive sleeve.
• Works with related transmission and drive components; inspect mating parts for wear.

What's included:

• One sleeve gear (drive sleeve) as pictured.

Install notes:

• Disconnect power and water supply before beginning service.
• Support the washer drum/tub and follow the manufacturer's disassembly steps to access the transmission output.
• Sleeve gears are often press-fit; use proper pullers/press tools or factory procedures to avoid damage.
