This thing vibrates and bangs around like its got a huge unbalanced load inside when it spins up.I replaced the springs holding the (barrell?)
and the plastic coupler to the motor. Same problem. I see there is a sort of skidplate underneath that has holes that line up and there were some pins hanging underneath them in these plastic cups, (not installed)I also replaced the water pump while I was in there,slight leak.
This has been a great washer and I'd hate to get rid of it.
The counter weights inside gone bad or u need to balance the machine legs , use a leveler to check balance
SOURCE: roper washer top loader spins very slow
if the appliance has a induction type motor could be that the running capacitor is failing coul be the motor itself
SOURCE: Washer will not spin, during rinse & I'm assuming spin cycle
throw pin in trash..shipping pin..spin problem..if motr runs and unit agitates suspect transmission or clutch on top of transmission

SOURCE: Roper washing machine- unbalanced spin - rocking agitator
I usually stand in front of the washer and take the plams of my hands and forcefully provide a force with the heel of my hands on the side front corners and the lip comes up
Another option is to pull the washer out and remove 2 clips (usually requires quarter inch nut driver to allow the top to come up
This should allow you to get the top off to see if a spring has broken or slipped off
GOOD LUCK!

probibly a coupled drive. motor coupling runs everything, pump,aggitator, spin. if none of these thrree, coupling is two plastic parts with rubber between directly on the shaft of the motor , see if there are two screws at the bottom of front of case., if so remove aathen look for clips at top rrear this should be an easy fix
does not Pump or Spin then checkout this tip... not draining and or not spinning287 views

O.K. , thank you all for all the help. The problem ended up being : It was unbalanced !!! After tweaking the adjusters on the bottom it got better and better, as I found out what angle was working best.It was not uneven on the floor, did not have a tilt, but changing the legs angle worked.I had even gone as far as adding extra springs attached to the barrel , to no avail. Note: I had this machine upside down overnight . NOT recommended ! All this gear oil drained out onto the floor, and I could not figure out how to refill it.Amazingly after tweaking the adjusters the machine still works and has not blown up, even low on oil.
