In addition the bearings would need to be replace and the front tub.
Whirlpool duet washer spider arm replacement.
The spider on the washer fractured.
Sometimes life requires a little maintenance.
You could get a better machine at a lower price.
I found an elevator manufacturer in toronto that had a guy who did aluminum welding.
The reason you would have to replace this part is because the spider arm is broken and whirlpool doesn t sell it separately.
Came back the second time.
I was informed to clean up the spider as it had who knows on it.
Our tub was perfectly fine so i ordered this replacement spider arm.
We have a whirlpool duet washer dryer purchased in 2007.
I brought the spider still attached to the drum in to get him to weld it.
My husband replaced it and our washer has been resurrected.
When your appliance does too use replacement parts designed specifically for your needs.
I would prefer to fix but this job is up and beyond.
Very happy with product and complete transaction verified purchase.
Whirlpool only sells the tub where this spider arm attaches to.
