Rolling along, "err" less ... Photo 1 From donor 106 the low mileage brake package and bearing. Snug fit and no free-play anywhere. Photo 2 After re-install I spin up the pully and immediately feel/felt a smooth wind-up of the spring that wasn't felt before. Photo 3 The tub clamp off the...

Reply #5 What's a "game player" ??

answers for now Not a new tub bearing and sleeve. Now installed is the used tub bearing and sleeve off the 106. 106 Tub bearing re-oiled. All parts smooth and like glass. Yes 2 transmissions combined to make 1. The upper shaft off the original 408 was "rusted" with a frozen spin tube...

Reg 40 wt Have put in 40wt oil. More that 2 Tablespoons. If anything to much oil as some has been "flung" about. That means some how the "err" sound vibrates up the shaft to my hand at the tub bearing ?? Will have to feel/listen for the "err" sound on the brake as I move tub back and forth...

Coming together Put back together and worked fine. But after 3-4 test loads came the "errr" noise. The "err" noise only lasts 1-2 seconds any time I pick up the lid to stop it spinning, or the machine ends its spin cycle. As tub slows down smooth. As tub speeds up smooth. It makes it at the...

Inner damper surface To smooth out the aluminum try fine sandpaper and wd-40 for the sanding lubricant. 1500 grit would be my start point. Wear rubber gloves as it is messy and will stain the fingers.

correction ... excuse me. Mr. Doug*.

What else ?? You bought the 806, didn't tell the wife cause your afraid she'll kill you and now are hiding the washer at your friends' place. You Mr. Dan are my hero.

I did Yes new lower seal went in. The base, from the 106 is shown/transplanted. Repainted but 100% rust-free. Just had paint chippin' off. The base off the 408 was way too rusty for my likin'... that got thrown out too !!

Stop the spin Same issue on all load size settings ?? I would make sure hose from tub to water level switch is 100% clear. This includes outside tub nipple. Where the hose attaches. Also, remove water level switch and blow out with air.

tub brace # Looks like I will be shopping for part # 213053. Times 3. As all I need are the brackets. That should be simple to ship/mail.

Good answer Thanks. I have my answer. I don't normally throw out stuff like that but it was my understanding the ONLY DIFFERENCE between the big/small tub was the long/short transmission shaft. However, the 408 tub braces were corroding/rusted up. Not re-usable. At least how I saw it. So I...

Putting back together a "rusty" Maytag A 408 white tub washer with rust free parts off a grey tub A 106 washer. I'm confused. The 408 damper with the tub braces was long ago thrown out. I do not have it to now match up with the 106 damper and tub braces to the only one I have to use. It is the...
