I never comment on stuff but this video just saved my husband from buying a new washer. I didn’t some digging and I decided I was going to try and attempt to fix my washer. I wasn’t able to wash clothes without the shaking and knocking. I just finish a load and it was so quiet!! This video helped a ton.

Great instructions and now my washer isn't shaking like hell, definitely saved me money. Only downside is my vicegrips slipped and I tore open a 1 1/2 inch gash on my thumb, but it's whatever-- user error, should've been more careful. For anyone reading this: make sure your grips are VERY tight so you're not a dummy like me.

(Not happy with the new style) I had placed the old washer outside and was waiting for the scrap people to pick it up. Stumbled across your video and thought that's what mine was doing. Brought it back to the garage. Ordered the parts off Amazon and I was able to repair my own washing machine with your help. Your a blessing THANK YOU

Washing machine was moved to storage by non pro movers and has been sitting for 2 years. so I replaced the hoses on the back. Thought that was the end of it THEN the whole tub started banging from side to side every time it got to the spin cycle. So I will try to replace the shocks. I'll let you know how it turns out. lol to be continued.

It only took me 20 minutes and I tested it and the things back spinning perfectly like new, it was violent rock the whole washing machine around and it was those spring rods. Mine were not the ones that were listed in the top there about possible model numbers it was the shorter ones, but I got them out of Amazon for 30 bucks 20 minutes of my time in my washer is running like new again so appreciate the video.

Thought This May Help Some Of You. With Mine, I Had No Side Access And Less Than 3 Foot In Front, Because Of The Dryer. Really Thought I'd Have A Hard Time, But After Installing The First Two Rods, Then Unlocking The Back Two, I Tilted The Washer Backwards, Again Just To Look...,Sure Enough, I Could Pull The Old Rod's, At An Angle And Install The New One's. Those Dome Looking Washer/Boots Above The Spring, Are Just A Catch Or Hanger, For Holding The Rod's In The Hole. Also, I Just Used Five Strip's Of Half Inch Masking Tape, On The Lid. Never Had To Unhook Anything, Other Than, Unplug The Power Cord. Shoot , I Had This Done In 30 Minute's. I've Watched Other Video's And They Make A Mountain Out Of A Mole Hill. lol Thanks For The Video Here.

In all my years, I've NEVER had a washing machine like this or do this. I never even knew there where shocks in them. I always fix my own appliances, but the last washer began to leak water wall over the place. I wasn't messing with it, after fixing my electric dryer for ten bucks, when the repairman wanted several hundred. It was just the heating element, geez. A multimeter told me that. I digress. This Amana was given to me, and was only about a yr. or less old. My father bought it for my brother and his wife when they got their own apartment. They moved home after the yrs lease was up (dad was terminally ill, and mom paralyzed) SO, naturally a free almost new washer I wasn't turning down or complaining, but this banging the side and front walls out is just plum nuts. Now I didn't want to work on anything. My husband is now terminally ill, and I just don't have time. I'm thinking I just might be fixing it, if I can find shocks for it. BUT, it's a small tub. I've only ever had industrial sized washer and dryers b/c we have King Size bed and lots of throw blankets. You can't fit anything into 3.4 cubit foot drum. I end up doing 10 loads of laundry, and riding the washer like it's a bucking bronco. I'm done with it. When something breaks around here, everything breaks I swear. I really hope this is as easy as it looks. Love to thank you for the video. You explained things well. This seems to be a common problem with this brand. I would NEVER BUY AMANA. EVER.
