Whirlpool W10219156 Tub Seal OEM Part

First; The part was ordered on Thursday and I received it on Friday! The kit was the correct one and complete with everything needed. (Maytag Atlantis MAV6200AWW – APV4373103 tub seal kit & bearing) Great Service ! I will certainly recommend you guys ! Some of the things I encountered installing the tub-seal on a machine that is 15 years old: Be prepared to do considerable cleaning of the tub cover, tub assy and outer tub. The 4 tub assy bolts were very rusted to the point the ½ inch socket would spin. I was able to use a 12mm 6-point socket to remove them with the help of a battery-powered impact wrench. This required a trip to the hardware store for new bolts. (It would have been nice to have 4 new replacement bolts included in the kit) With the four hold-down bolts removed, I was not able to remove the stuck-in-place tub assy. I ended up using a hair dryer to warm up the gasket area and was able to un-stick the tub assy. Because of the age of the machine, the wash tub hub was really struck and the pipe wrench and hammer method simply would not transfer enough torque to break it loose. I removed the old shaft seal and sprayed WD40 down the shaft. Still no luck because the drive belt was also absorbing the energy from the hammer blows and allowed the entire transmission and hub to rebound. I prevented the transmission assy from rotating by using a chain wrench around the transmission casting and hammered directly on the stuck hub. This took considerable time, but eventually the hub screwed off. One other tip; tape the suspension spring wire eyelets in place to speed up the reinstallation of the springs. (Especially the ones in back that are hard to see) The entire project was not particularly difficult but took most of Saturday. I got a rave review from my wife and the washer now runs like a new machine! Woo Hoo !

Ordered tub seal kit and new belt, repaired it myself. make sure you get the unit clocked correctly before installing the springs.

While trying to remove tub seal hub (which came off in six pieces I call it a "TOUGH" hub) I accidentally cracked the outside tub. I have received the new HT transmission which came with a new tub seal kit PN W102119156. I ordered a seal kit when I ordered the transmission not knowing it came with a tub seal. I also ordered an outside tub it is on manufacture back order. AppliancePartsPros.com is keeping me up to date on the back order part, The hub was the hardest part to remove. The video's were very helpful and I received the in stock parts in only 2 days, that's fantastic! This washing machine is a Maytag Atlantis which is 12 years old have never had one problem with it until now. AppliancePartsPros.com was able to get every part that I needed and an excellent price, "OUTSTANDING JOB" Thanks! I will let you know how it went when I receive the tub and get it installed.

Replaced most seals in the washer, due to age and corrosion.
