Jason W Kingston , TN December 05, 2023 Appliance: Maytag Washer MVWB865GW0 Bearing on the gearcase failed and caused some fatigue on rotor and clutch. We watched the videos posted on AppliancePartsPros.com website several times before starting the work. Once we were confident of the process, we jumped in with the complete disassembly of the washing machine's drum rotating assembly...everything that touched the drum or made it rotate. My son and I disassembled and inspected each part for wear/damage and ordered replacement parts based on condition. The parts came in within 3 days of ordering. My son and I took 3 hours to reassemble and test the washing machine for operation. It took 30 minutes to get everything together, and it took 2.5 hours to figure out how to get the drum onto the gearcase without damaging it. Once we figured that out, it was smooth sailing.

Hamilton G Virginia Bch , VA February 01, 2025 High pitch squeak on spin cycle Replaced the gearcase which came with a washer. Upon removal of the old gearcase, the original washer had all but eroded away. The video did not show how hard it was to remove the screw from the agitator which I had to use a 12v impact wrench. I was able to replace the gearcase without removing the inner drum and it really does take a 3lb sledge to drive the spindle out, a deadblow hammer didn't work. In total, it took me ~4hrs including removal and install of the washer in the cleaning room. Read More...
