Whirlpool Washer Support Parts

The Shock Absorber Kit is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. This kit includes 4 shock absorbers designed to reduce vibrations and absorb shocks during the washing and spinning cycles, providing stability and minimizing excessive movement of the washer drum.

Causes of a bad shock absorber can include wear and tear from regular use, exposure to heavy loads or unbalanced loads that put excessive strain on the absorbers, or damage due to impact or mishandling.

Symptoms of a bad shock absorber kit include:

• Excessive shaking or vibrating during the wash cycle
• Loud banging noises
• The washer moving or "walking" during operation
• Leaks due to increased stress on the tub and other components

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

Replacement suspension rod kit for washing machines. Includes 4 rods that stabilize the tub during wash and spin cycles. Needed when rods are worn or bent.

The Shock Absorber is an OEM part compatible with Whirlpool washing machines. It is a crucial component that helps reduce vibrations and dampens movement during the spin cycle. The shock absorber absorbs mechanical stresses to prevent the washer tub, suspension springs, and other components from wearing out prematurely.  

Causes of a bad shock absorber include wear and tear over time, cracks or breaks from heavy loads, or damage due to impact.  

Symptoms of a bad shock absorber include:

• Excessive shaking, vibration or noise during the wash and spin cycles   
• The washer walking or moving during operation
• Premature failure of other suspension parts like springs or the washer frame
• Potential leaks if movement stresses plumbing connections

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

This 22-inch strap snubber cushions and guides the dryer belt at the front of the drum to help reduce noise and prevent premature belt wear. It restores proper belt routing for smoother, quieter tumbling in compatible Whirlpool dryers. What it does:

• Cushions the belt where it contacts the front drum area to reduce rubbing and chafing.
• Helps maintain correct belt routing and tension to prevent slipping and uneven drum rotation.
• Can reduce squeaks, squeals, and jerky drum movement caused by a worn or broken snubber.
• Protects the belt from premature wear that may lead to fraying or failure.

• Disconnect power (and gas supply for gas dryers) before beginning any repair.
• Access typically requires removing the dryer front panel or drum—follow the OEM service manual for safe disassembly.
• Inspect the drive belt, idler pulley, and drum rollers when replacing the snubber; replace any worn parts.
• Wear gloves and eye protection.

The Strap is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. It is a component located inside the washer tub that holds onto and spins the outer tub during the wash cycle. The strap washer plays an important role in securing the outer tub in place while continuously channeling rotational force to drive the washing action and clean clothes effectively. 

Causes of a bad strap can include wear and tear from years of use, damage due to impact or mishandling, or degradation from chemical exposure. 

Symptoms of a bad strap include:

• Excessive vibration or shaking during spin cycles
• Noise or grinding sounds coming from the washer tub area 
• The outer tub wobbling or moving more than usual
• Uneven agitation that fails to thoroughly clean all clothes

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