Remove the lower access panel and check to see if one or more shocks are broken or diplaced. You may have a steached spring causing the bellows to come off in the spin cycle.
If the washer only leaks during the spin cycle, you may have a worn door bellow (rubber seal). As the washer spins, the centrifugal force of the tub can spin the water into the door area. If the seal is torn, it will leak out of the bottom of the washer. You will need to inspect the perimeter around the door to ensure the seal does not have any rips or tears. To be sure, you need to remove the lower toe panel under the door and inpsect the washer thoroughly. The following link explains how to access the interior of the washer cabinet and how to inspect for leaks:
The door bellow DOES wear out with age, but if you have a tendancy to overload the washer it can contribute to premature wear. If you determine that the bellow requires replacement, the following link explains how to replace one:
Most noises from a washing machine occur during the spin cycle. If you hear loud thumping during the spin, the load of clothes may have become unbalanced. Stop the washer and redistribute the clothes, then re-start it. Repeat these steps if necessary.This will solve your problem.

If the the drum feels loose in any way, there are three possible reasons: 1. The pulley nut has come loose. (easily repairable from the rear) 2. The bearing is bad (part of the rear tub). 3. The spinner has come loose from the basket (what you describe)
In cases 2 and 3, the entire drum/tub assembly will have to be removed, disassembled and repaired/replaced.
Check your owners manual for possible limited warranty. Contact Whirlpool for potential warranty repair concessions for case 3 if not covered under limited warranty.
