Basket siezed up is this the repair. Would appreciate a description of the problem this fixes
Replaced suspension rods and still didn't solve the problem. Then I replaced Washer Drive Block which solved the problem. Definitely get yourself the spanner wrench. It's worth it! I tried to remove it first without the spanner wrench and it didn't work. Once I got the spanner wrench, it was super easy. Replacing the Washer Drive Block solved the possesed washer machine problem.

I'm sorry but if any repair man didn't clean or allow me to clean those gunky parts while they were off, is not detailed or some one I want working on my appliances.

@@HRTsAFyre I'm sure that a repairman will not have time to let you clean the parts while they wait for you to do so and then finish with the repair after you're done. I'm a do-it-yourselfer and I have taken one of these apart before that had a lot of dirt in it. The process of cleaning all those parts is no joke. It's not something that a repairman can wait for you to do. And if you are not very careful, you can actually break one or more of these parts during cleaning.

@@HRTsAFyre see my last comment. If you have a machine that is at least five years old, I can tell you that the dirt that they are showing on that top ring in the video is the least of your worries if you want to try and clean the parts. It's everything that's underneath that ring all the way to the bottom of the outer tub, (the part of the machine That You Don't See) which can be a complete nightmare. Especially when you're talking about someone that uses too much soap or uses the wrong brands of soap when washing. Common reasons to clean the space between the inner and outer tubs ( the space You Don't See) is when someone is saying that they smell mildew, a sour smell, or a smell of rotten eggs when the machine is running or if any of the clothing comes out smelling like it. Some of the brands of detergent to avoid which will do this to your machine over time is TIDE liquid, And cheaper brands of detergent such as most "store brands" or Xtra, Purex and Sun.

@@REXXSEVEN I took my washer apart completely last May and did the needed replacement of the spinner tub base stand myself. Arter 30 years of use their wasn't too much build-up between the two tubs. There was a lot of lint on the lint trap beneath the inner tub. That was where most of my build-up was. So while waiting for my new support base I cleaned and removed rust and repainted some parts that around the transmission support and frame that needed it. I pulled and checked the brake for wear and checked all parts for wear. All good now. Works like new. Just the leaky tub seal damaged my support base and there was too much rust on it to save so a new one did the trick. Good as new, and squeaky clean. Thanks for the tips on detergents. Which do you suggest using? I was using Gain powder and didnt seem to get a lot of gunk. I also use a little 20 Mule Team Borax which softens the water and keeps mold at bay. I'm sure that is the reason way my washer didn't look as gunky as this one did, but still cleaned it up nicely.
Great video thanks

Did you ever get it off? I have the same problem. I cannot remove the tub from the drive block.
My spanner but is so rusted I can't loosen it.
can this part be bad? it appears to be a friction lock on the tub shaft.

Yes because the slots where the tube and tube tabs sit on get worn out and disappear and the spin drum falls a little and gets wobbly and loose.
