FAQs

The most common sign is the washer shaking, vibrating, or 'walking' during the spin cycle, often accompanied by an 'uL' or 'Ub' (unbalanced load) error code. If your machine struggles to complete a cycle or makes loud banging noises as the tub hits the cabinet, the suspension rods have likely lost their ability to dampen the movement of the tub.
This kit is compatible with a wide range of top-load washers from Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, Amana, Roper, Inglis, and Crosley. It is designed to fit numerous models, including the NTW4516FW, WTW4816FW2, RTW4516FW2, NTW4516FW2, and NTW4605EW0 series.
This kit serves as a direct replacement for W10537442. It also cross-references with several other part numbers, including W10537443, W10622030, W10645652, W10748953, W10748955, W10780045VP, W10780053, W10821951, and W10821956.
Installation is a manageable repair for most DIYers, typically taking about 30 to 60 minutes. You will need to remove the washer's top panel to access the rods. It is highly recommended to have a second person available to help tilt or hold the tub steady while you swap out the old rods for the new ones.
Yes, it is best practice to replace all four rods simultaneously. Even if only one or two appear worn, replacing the full set ensures the tub remains level and balanced, which prevents uneven wear and future performance issues.
Ensure the washer is unplugged and the water supply is turned off before starting. When installing the new rods, verify they are seated correctly in their respective sockets. If the washer still vibrates after installation, double-check that the machine is perfectly level on the floor, as an unlevel base can put unnecessary strain on the new suspension system.
