DC66-00470A & DC66-00470B Washer Shock Absorbers - Pack of 4

Key Features

  • Enhanced Vibration Dampening: Specifically designed to absorb the kinetic energy produced by high-speed spinning, keeping the washer tub stable and preventing excessive "walking" or shaking.
  • Friction-Resistance Engineering: Features internal dampening components and high-grade grease to ensure smooth piston travel and consistent performance throughout the life of the machine.
  • Optimized 4-Point Suspension: This set includes both "A" and "B" versions to match the specific resistance requirements of each corner of the Samsung washer tub.
  • Heavy-Duty Construction: Manufactured from high-strength reinforced plastic and steel to withstand the constant mechanical stress of large laundry loads.
  • OEM-Spec Fitment: Engineered as a direct drop-in replacement for original Samsung dampers, ensuring the mounting holes and lengths align perfectly with the factory suspension pins.

Compatibility & Fitment

This suspension kit is a standard replacement for many Samsung front-load washing machines. Key compatible series include:

  • Samsung WF Series: Fits a massive range of front-loaders (e.g., WF42H5200AW, WF365BTBGWR, WF210ANW, WF45H6300AG).
  • Samsung WA Series: Compatible with select high-efficiency top-load models that utilize this specific piston-style dampener.
  • Note on Placement: Many Samsung models use different resistance levels on the front vs. the rear. Ensure you match the "A" and "B" parts to their original positions on the chassis.

When to Replace

  • Excessive Vibrating/Shaking: The washer tub hits the side panels during the spin cycle, even with a small or balanced load.
  • The "Thumping" Sound: A loud, rhythmic banging noise occurs as the machine gains speed, indicating the shocks are no longer controlling the tub's movement.
  • Unbalanced Load Errors: The machine frequently stops and displays "DC" or "UE" error codes because the tub is swaying too far out of alignment.
  • Visible Oil or Leakage: You notice oil or grease leaking from the shock absorber housing, indicating the internal seals have failed.
  • No Resistance: If you remove a shock and can easily slide the piston in and out with one finger, it has lost its dampening ability and is "blown."

Installation Tips

  • Safety First: Unplug the washer and shut off the water supply. Accessing these parts typically requires removing the front or rear panel (depending on your specific model).
  • Lay it Down: For many front-loaders, it is easiest to access the shocks by carefully laying the washer on its side or back (use a moving blanket to protect the finish).
  • Check the Pins: Most shocks are held in place by plastic locking pins. Inspect these pins for wear; if they are cracked or thinned, they should be replaced along with the shocks.
  • The Compression Test: Once installed, push down on the tub from the top. It should move down and then return to center smoothly without bouncing. If it bounces like a car with bad struts, the shocks are not seated or are defective.
  • Lubricate Sparingly: If the mounting pins are difficult to slide through the new shock eyelets, use a tiny amount of liquid dish soap. Avoid using petroleum-based grease as it can degrade the plastic eyelets over time.

FAQs

These shock absorbers are used on Samsung front-load washing machines. Based on the available compatibility references, they fit many Samsung models in the WF and WV series, including families that begin with WF20, WF21, WF32, WF33, WF35, WF39, WF40, WF41, WF42, WF43, WF44, WF45, WF46, WF50, WF51, WF52, WF56, WV55, and WV60. Because Samsung used similar dampers across many models, the safest way to confirm fit is to match your original part number and your washer's full model number.
This set includes DC66-00470A and DC66-00470B and cross-references to several related numbers used for compatible Samsung washer dampers, including DC66-00650C, DC66-00650D, AP4206426, 2020946, PS4212219, PS4212220, AP4456255, EAP4212219, EAP4212220, 2072308, LP0470A, and PD00005880. Matching the part number from your original shock absorber is the best way to verify replacement.
Typical symptoms include excessive tub movement, strong vibration during spin, loud banging or thumping, the washer 'walking' across the floor, and out-of-balance shutdowns even when the load is distributed correctly. On front-load Samsung washers, worn shocks can also let the drum bounce too freely when pushed by hand.
Yes, replacing the full set is usually the better repair. Washer shocks wear as a group, so installing only one or two new dampers can leave uneven damping from front to rear or side to side. A 4-pack is especially useful when the machine has severe vibration or has been used for years with the original suspension parts.
For someone comfortable opening a washer cabinet, this is typically a moderate repair. Common tools may include a Phillips screwdriver, pliers, a socket or nut driver set, and a flashlight. On many Samsung front-load models, access is gained by removing the top, front, or rear panel depending on the design. Expect roughly 30 to 90 minutes for the job if there are no seized pins or tight access points.
Before installation, unplug the washer and shut off the water supply. Inspect the suspension springs, tub mounting points, shock pins, and cabinet base for cracks or damage. Also verify the machine is level and that shipping bolts are not still installed on a recently moved washer. If the washer has been shaking violently, check for damage to the outer tub and make sure the drum spins freely without rubbing.
These parts usually wear from repeated high-speed spin cycles, heavy loads, frequent unbalanced loads, and age-related loss of damping force. Running the washer while out of level can speed up wear, and once the dampers weaken, the extra tub movement can quickly accelerate failure of the remaining shocks.
