Compatibility & Fitment

Designed for use with various top-load washing machine models, primarily from the LG brand. To ensure an exact fit, verify compatibility by checking your appliance's original part number or model number before ordering.

When to Replace

Consider replacing the suspension rods if your washer exhibits one or more of the following symptoms:

  • Excessive shaking or moving, especially during the spin cycle.
  • Loud banging or thumping sounds during operation.
  • The wash tub appears tilted, sagging, or off-center.
  • Frequent unbalanced load error codes (such as "UE") even with properly distributed laundry.

Installation Tips

  • Before beginning installation, disconnect the washing machine from all power and water supplies.
  • For optimal performance and balance, it is recommended to replace all four suspension rods simultaneously.
  • Observe the placement of the old rods before removal to ensure the new rods are installed in the correct positions.
  • Lifting the top panel of the washer may require assistance.

FAQ

This suspension rod kit is designed for specific LG and Kenmore top-load washers. Compatible models include LG WT4970CW, WT5070CW, WT5170HV, WT5170HW, WT6001HV, and WT6001HW, as well as Kenmore 796.31512210, 796.31512211, 796.31513210, 796.31513211, 796.31522210, 796.31522211, 796.31523210, and 796.31523211. Because washer parts can vary by revision, please verify your specific model and part number before ordering.
The primary part number is AJK72909307. This kit also cross-references with 4902EA1002E, TAW35618213, AP5736587, 2758534, PS8737438, and PD00026805.
Common signs include excessive vibration, loud banging during spin cycles, the tub swinging too freely, repeated out-of-balance errors, or the washer walking across the floor. Worn suspension rods can also cause the basket to sit unevenly or strike the cabinet during heavy loads.
Yes, replacing all 4 rods together is the recommended repair. If only one rod is replaced, the washer may remain uneven because the remaining rods are likely already weak or stretched. Installing a full set ensures balanced tub support.
This is a moderate repair for a top-load washer. You will typically need a screwdriver and pliers, and the installation generally takes 30 to 60 minutes. Always unplug the washer before beginning. The process involves opening the top panel, supporting the tub, and swapping the rods one at a time to maintain control of the basket.
First, ensure the washer is level and the floor is solid, as an unlevel machine can mimic the symptoms of bad suspension. Inspect the tub support points, rod seats, and springs for damage. If the washer has been operated while significantly out of balance, check for cabinet contact marks or other looseness before installing the new kit.
Yes. This part has a rod length of approximately 25.8 inches. Shorter rods may require a different part number, such as AJK72909308. If your existing rods measure less than 25.5 inches, please verify the correct part for your specific model number before ordering.
