Here's a thought... You know, it's such a small part, I wonder if you could get someone with a 3D printer to make it?

AMP Timer/Kickplate Hi! That timer motor is nla and I've searched everywhere for it. However there was one member who rebuilt the motor for his AMP's timer. You can search the archives for AMP and find the posts where he shows how he did it. He has more patience than I, so I bought an A102S...

Reply #29 Wow, love the pictures of the baseplate. Talk about a professional job, that is just beautiful work. It looks like brand new out of the box. Does the machine shop you used still do this type work? Because if they do, and at a reasonable cost, I can see them getting much...

Reply #22 Curious... You mentioned you rebuilt your machines from the ground up, including, specifically replacing the centerpost in the baseplate. Can you tell me more about this? I've heard of having SS sleeves welded over the original centerpost, but have never heard of a WP BD centerpost...

Interesting plumbing configuration Look closely at Pic #2? Did you notice that not only does the washer have to pump up to the drain, but the way it's plumbed, all the water from the upper floor will drain right into the machine when it's not running, down the hose, through the pump right into...

WOW! What a beauty! Congratulations! Looks brand new from the pics!!!

Oh my! Congratulations! That machine looks like it was just uncrated. What a find! I'm glad you were able to save it!

Nice set That's a very nice set! I'm always happy to see another collector find their dream set. I sent you an email. I might have something you need. Dennis

I'm looking for parts also. I'm also looking for parts for my 1-18. I need a couple of tub top clips. Nothing major. Right now I have 2 missing and have had to re-adjust the ones I have to try to keep everything sealed. But, I'm not real comfortable doing this. Seems like a setup for a...

1966 RCA/Whirlpool My 1966 RCA/Whirlpool washer. I saved this from the crusher about 10 years ago. It was sitting in a neighbors garage when I drove past and saw it. The centerpost was completely rusted through and the baseplate wasn't in much better shape. Saved this one by transplanting a...

It's a direct drive set as stated above. These are a middle of the line set IMHO. Looks like they are in great shape cosmetically. If the price is right, I'd definitely go and take a look at them. If you do, pay particular attention to the insides of the machines, looking for wear. You can...

Looking for a console for a Whirlpool BD super capacity washer model LA5800XPN0. I currently have a machine with good mechanics and runs like new, but it's console is peeling on the left due to being sprayed with something. If you run across a machine that's going to be scrapped that has a...

Well it's a no go on my dream machine. Well I just spoke to the lady who was holding this, my dream machine for me. I had planned on making a trip to Evansville to pick this up, but today I found out it was located "in the basement." The first thing I asked was "Is there an exterior door to...

I'm going after it Monday!!! I have been looking for one of these machines for what seems like forever. I let one of these that was only a few miles distant from me slip through my fingers about 15+ years ago. When this one came up, I just had to inquire about it. I'm going to go pick it...

Last time I posted was in 2008. I used the same "mrmaytag" username.
