Thank you brotha, it’s ppl like you that make KZfaq great.

I just fixed mine in just over an hour after a little wrestling around. It finally submitted after the Australian toe hold followed by the choke hold!😁 thanks for the great video!!!

You really sound like a teacher. Very well done video. Congratulations!

You are a master teacher! Pleasant and clear explanation. Thank you!

Great video..I like the way you explain things (the instructions) and then do it just like you said..well done..keep them video coming.

I’ve gotta look into this! We have a 2 year old with the same issue. By far this is the best explanation on suspension rods. Thank you my friend! 👍🏼

Very well done as always. The one time I had problems with shaking and making loud banging noises was that one time I ate at Chipotle. 😀 Hope you have a great weekend ahead!

The amount of talking is Just Fine. So is the pace of your descriptions. I've watched videos that are faster and louder, and they do me no good. Thanks for this video and for answering your Comment questions.

Very informative video. The back of my Maytag washer vibrates & has done so since it was new. I hooked a piece of rope on the back & pulled it tight toward the front of the washer which helped so I’m wondering if maybe the screws were not tightened. Will have to check. It’s worse when I wash jeans & I’ve cut the load size down considerably. Thanks for sharing such a great repair video. Very well done!

Nice video, very clean. My neighbor's dogs bark. Makes me feel at home.

Thanks a million! I found the parts at Amazon. My machine is an Admiral Brand. Super easy to replace thanks again!

Love how you explain everything as you go! I replaced my rods but think I’m going to have to replace the hub, it’s still shaking. Also need to replace the sound absorbers on both sides. 🤞🤞🤞

Sooo easy to understand. Thank you soooo, much!!!❤

great video, thanks. life hack for me was to use the old rod J hooks to lift the new ones through

Great video, thanks! Didn't notice the dog barking until you mentioned it. 😆

Good video and great job. Well done sir.

Great explanation. Great video.

THANK YOU! I was able to fix my machine. It works perfect now!

Great teacher!!! Very helpful!

Thanks, you explained things very well

Making this repair stopped my washer from trying to self-destruct in the spin cycle.

Excellent video very simple

I fixed my washer changed these but it still shakes like crazy, only one was broken off, isnt there 4 other smaller springs that go on washer im thinking maybe its those , do you have video on changes these

That’s my washer. Bought it for the simple technology. Good ol basic construction but I have this imbalance problem

Is there any video to fix the same problem for those advance digital whirlpool laundry machine. It shakes and keeps bagging against the wall

Thanks!! Explanation is great!!

Outstanding video thanks so much an easy fix !!!!

Thanks for the help! This should be easy to fix on mom's machine. Plus save her the $80 serves call fee.

I have same washer but mines only shake during spin cycle where do u think I should start first?

Do you have to insert from the bottom of the washer? Can you drop it down from the inside of the washer?

Thank you! Very well done!!

Great video, even I got it. What does a 4 set of those cost? Thanks

Great video, I just replaced the plastic to metal flange but fear I need to replace the rods too because it still bounces up and down when pushed down.

I have a whirlpool WTW4815EWO I bought suspension rods from Amazon. It says compatible. I noticed the plastic pieces that fit in the whole n cup the rod fit into are slightly different. They don’t look like fit securely in the frame. So I used the old ones. Put back together but machine is still banging. Also the drum still feels like had sake slack in it. Not firm.

Our washer does that we changed all 4 rods and it's still doing it anything else it could be? It's a Maytag

When putting your old rods back in did it fix the problem?

I had whirlpool mod WTW4950XW2. Do you by any chance have instructions how to get to rods? .It’s different to what you show in your video. Thanks

Were u buy your parts from

hello, yesterday I bought new washing machine and I forget to remove 4 bolt screws from the back. and I had start washing clothes and after few minutes my machine got noise and i plugged off and i saw one bolt screw broken down on the floor. after that i remove all bolt screw from the machine. i am worried about the half part of the screw inside the machine. I just want to know is it safe for machine or what happened?

were did you get the part for the machine?

My washer was 90% identical; however, the drum was completely suspended by the rods/springs... if you follow the video's instructions on how to get the right part, you should be fine (Yes, I got mine from Amazon too). In my case, I found it easier just to pull the washer out completely and lay it on its side - that "zeroes" the tension on the "top" springs and they are easy to replace. Flipping it over has the same effect. When repaired and reset upright, you may need to 'bounce' the tub a bit manually for everything to set... Once it does, yes, it can still side/side but it is difficult to go up/down. My guess is the "free form/ Side-to-side" thing is so it can judge the load size. But the repair worked like a charm - $40- over $400? sign me up!

This is the best video who need their washer fixed ?😂

replaced suspension rods with Chinesium and well, it didn't last long. If you have to wait to get USA made parts, do so, its worth the wait and the money.

I have replaced the rods in my Cabrio and now it will spin at high speed and not bang around. However when agitating the drum slams into the sides every time the agitator changes direction. The bearings need replacing and I will be doing that next when I get the kit. But scratching my head over such a wide movement of the tube during agitation when that was not an issue before I replaced the rods. Any thoughts on this?

You got a link for the rods please

Thanks so much

I accidentally dropped a paper cloth behind the drum and cannot get it out. Is it a fire hazard?

Thanks for the video, I just lubed the cup the suspension rod bearing rides in and the noise went away.

I replaced the springs, but my washer still shakes violently when spinning. The issue is not the load being out of balance. Do you know what else could cause this? Thanks.

Hello, i have a Maytag washing machine and when the spin cycle starts the washing machine stars making a lot of noise, im thinking bearings(?). I've also cleaned the light sensor that sits on the actuator since it was covered in a thin layer of dried mud so the washing machine wouldn't work. Now that its cleaned it works, but over time a little puddle of water forms under the machine. So im thinking that a seal went bad, causing a small leak that affected a bearing and also caused the build up of dirt on the sensor. I dont know anything about washing machines but i plan to work on it myself since theres a few people that would fix it where I live. So if you could help me i would be very grateful.

Thanks dude! So, what happens to the rod that it needs to be replaced? Does anything break, or are they just worn? Again, thanks this is a huge help!

Is it possible to show what was actually wrong with the suspension? Just trying to learn. 😊 Thank you for showing how to replace them.

What is the average cost of a suspension rod?

My Maytag only grinds in agitation mode. Would that also be the clutch?

Bro thanks for ur videos. Question my maytag machine is 1 year old u thing thats the problem with mine??? It shakes like crazy. I hope u will answer my question thanks a lot again for ur helpful videos..🙏🏼🙏🏼

Hi DuctTapeMechanic! I just subscribed! Question for you, is it likely to be anything other than the suspension rods? The hub axle seems fine but I do have water between the inner and outer drum and I am wondering if that could be the culprit for the crazy shaking? After I opened up the top I put the washer on spin with nothing inside and it spun smoothly.

Thank you...

How can I get the part number you used? I have the exact same washing machine. Not sure which one to order.

We took the rods out one by one and inspected them but nothing appeared to be wrong or broken with them on my dads whirlpool washer. Could they still be bad? The machine does shake and is loud on spin cycle and the foam pads on the left and right insides are worn through from the drum banging the sides. The front and rear pads look fine. The machine is maybe 5 years old.

I tried this and it did not fix the shaking/banging. Any idea what else it could be?

VERY HELPFUL TY!!! As for the dog we all have neighbors like that! They're either incredibly rude or stupidly oblivious to the dog barking! Here's a tip just wrap some bologna around some chocolate and hopefully that solves the dog problem!😁

My tub is huge and no room to squeeze my arm down to lift the rod up into the top hole. So I used the clip end of my dog’s leash to grab the hook on the top of the rod and pull the it up thru the hole! HA!

Where do you buy the replacement suspension rods

So what is actually wrong with the rods?

How do u know if it is the rods or maybe machine is not balance?

The tension while watching this video was intense; then I realized that the barking dog was just like the border shootout scene in Sicario...

What’s the model number?

DuctTape Mechanic, hmm, first time I am here. First think came to mind was The Red Green show.

Do you need to replace all of them?

I did this repair and the washer still shakes. Any ideas?

Where do you get the parts from???

I replaced my drain pump and then ran a wash cycle to make sure it was good. But the wife ran a load and now it shakes like freaking crazy! What did I do wrong??

What if I replaced these but it is still shaking bad

Its not always the rods on those. The hubs in the tub that connect to transmission go bad. They have a replacement kit that changes it from cheap plastic to metal

I changed all 4 and it’s still banging around in the same manor. Any idea what else it could be?

The suprension are fine, what is my next move?

I just replaced the suspension rod in my washing machine but when i used it, the machine is still banging

Hey so I replaced the rods and also the hub( plastic to metal swap). Still dancing around but not as often now.

Just push down the cap and duck tape the rod to prevent it from bouncing up.

I changed the balancing rods and still bouncing around. Ugh.

The minute go search for suspension rods, every model, but mine. All they have for mine is a stupid cover.

dude!!

Im ending strapping washer to a oallet after i change this stupid balance rods

Help me please 😢I broke my sisters washer I’m freaking out

Don't make the same mistake I did and get the cheap off-brand suspension rods they don't work. The problem wasn't fixed until I bought the more expensive rods.

For sure buy a used non-governmental appliance that actually cleans clothes! Lots less money than the over-regulated computerized hi dollar stuff they are trying to sell now! I bought an old school washer yesterday and am having my old washer refurbished. Talk about going green!

T

My friend repaired his washer to surprise his wife when she was out of town. When she saw what he did she told him to make it shake again or she was leaving him forever. Don’t come between a woman and her spin cycle!

This washer is only 2years old

Explain it better brother

Damn this dog annoying

Not the right way to do it lay on front remove alll rods slide new in

Dude!!! That dog needs to go.

Talk tooooooo much
