HOW CAN I REMOVE REAR DRUM BEARINGS

Clarification Request

Posted by Jimster on Feb 15, 2008

Can you please tell me what type of washer it is on? I know this, on certian brands, like the Maytag Neptunes, are not removable, you have to replace the whole inner shell part, and is quite expensive and very time consuming (needing special tools, etc.). Let me know what type and model number, and can help you out a touch better. talk to you soon.

-   I need to know how to replace the bearing as at the moment as soon as the spin cycle kicks in the machine sounds like it is grinding itself to bits and getting ready to launch into space.-   Jeff Burgess

-   hi i have an indesit WM12x and the rear bearings need replacing, how difficult is this part to replace / get at, I've found many sites offering the spare part is it just a case of swapping the old for the new?-   richinhove

-   Fridigaire Front Load Washing Machine Model GLTF1670ASO.

Problem: During high speed spin cycle, machine shakes, rattles and almost rolls. Also produces a loud fast paced clanging noise as if solid parts are hitting each other during the cycle. Opened the top and observed the function during fast spin and cant determine problem from this view. Doesnt appear that any parts are broken or worn, but havent removed back panel. Also how do you check that shocks are ok, they appear to be.-   jonny crane

-   Have a Frigidaire Gallery model #gltr1670aso. How do we get the drum apart? Our clothes are coming out of the wash with dark stains on them. Is it grease or scum buildup?-   angham

the frigidaire gallery has a sealed bearing in it and you have to replace the tub half there are no special tools needed just time. it would be best to take it to a repair shop yes its a little costly but it is worth the money. it takes about 1 1/2 hours to fix it with parts on hand
