Well i just finished up mine, new bearings new seal, running test on basket clean cycle, so far success, no more leak....$80, lots of time, it's tedious, lots of stuff in there, but better than $800 for a new washer, GE it's 15 years old, inside still looks clean just stain where it was weeping for some time on the seal back area....finally started weeping more then i seen the water on the cellar floor, so far it's DRY. The video really made it doable. THANKs

Purchased my bearing kit today from you. Even though you're about double the price of ebay chinese knockoffs, it's well worth it to reward for using good bearings and an excellent instructional video like this!

Success! Took me longer than I thought, but worked out great. My Whirlpool Duet washer whirls again, quietly. I recommend taking lots of pictures for reference on reassembly. Thanks British James! Your service saved me hundred of dollars.

His bearings and seals are worth the price. I’ve purchased several sets over the few years. Nachi bearings from Japan. ALSO!!! RUN WASHING MACHINE CLEANER ON “SANITIZE” OR “CLEAN” SETTING BEFORE STARTING THE JOB. It will save you lots of cleaning once you break open the tub halves. Tide and Affresh brands are in your local grocery stores with the laundry detergent.

A great video. Very detailed. Probably saved me a lot of aggravation compared to trying this without the video. Wish me luck!

Thank you for the video! A replacement tub is over $800! I checked my 2005 Frigidaire model number, the tag says Elecrolux Home Products! It's the GLTF2940ES0 Never had a repair since new, but now making a thump, thump, thump shake on spin cycle.

Dang. The metal bracket that spreads out to the drum in three areas was the culprit to my problem. No replacements. The drum "assembly" is $600 and up. No thanks! Time for a new washer. Thanks frontloadbearings for an awesome tutorial on replacing the bearings..

For the retaining ring (spring clip), take some pliers and bent the tips of the removal tool so they are at least parallel to one another when first engaging into the clip. Even better if you bend them so the tips are slightly pointing in towards one another. This will make it so the clip will want to ride up towards the tool, rather than riding down those pins and slipping off.

FYI, someone suggested greasing the shaft before installing it in the housing. You don't want the shaft rotating inside the ball bearing race, you want the bearing to turn. I have had many worn out hvac shafts due to it rotating inside the bearing when the locking collar came loose, and these don't even have locking collars! I was going to suggest a bit of loctite on the shaft where the bearing race rides to prevent that. Thanks

Thanks for doing that video . Do you wait for silicone to dry before marring the half’s together?
