https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1429046967680077/   Extra large capacity, my guess is mid-late 80s. A little dirty but overall appears to be in excellent shape!   $45

Well this is a bit of a blast from my past. My grandfather had a washer just like this when I was a young child except with a dual action agitator. Whenever he did laundry while I was over there, I would always stand up on a stool to peek through the lid as it ran through its cycle. I remember...

https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1420361035477402/   Seller only included one picture, but the cabinet looks to be in great shape! Just a little dirty. Seller also says it works, but even if it doesn't, a free 806 is still a free 806.   I would totally grab this one for myself if I...

https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/697019411874977/ $75 in Dyersburg TN. Two speed early-mid 80's model. Looks like a standard capacity MOL model.   https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1283636562286725/ $150 in Anderson SC. Early 90's but can't tell anything else from the one...

https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/2095075137518298/   Looks like a 2 speed standard (small) capacity model from the early 90's. Somewhere between BOL and MOL.   Been a while since I've seen a FF in the wild so for all my fellow FF enthusiasts out there, now's your chance!

I recently started thread #94062 asking for help removing the inner tub of a Whirlpool Direct Drive. Now that I finally got that out, I felt I should start a more generalized thread of my progress rebuilding this thing. It looks like a BOL model unfortunately, but overall is in fantastic shape...

I’m trying to work on a 30 year old Whirlpool Direct Drive model LST6132A. The inner tub is fused to the drive block and no matter what I do I cannot get it off. I got the nut off but the tub is stuck. I tried everything I can think of. Poured hot water on it, soaked it in hot water with vinegar...

After a few weeks of searching for a nice old washer I could fix up and hopefully make a decent profit off of, I came across a nice looking A512. Bought it a couple weeks ago with a newer Kenmore dryer for $200. Overall, it is in pretty good condition. Needs some typical maintenance and a good...

So several years ago, I accidentally snapped the head off the agitator locking screw on my 1994 LAT4914 when I was trying to remove the agitator to give the machine a good clean. I since dropped that project since it didn't really need a clean and I did not want to deal with getting that broken...

I just bought a Maytag A512 a couple days ago manufactured in the first half of February 1987. It definitely needs some work, but is overall in pretty good shape. However, the brake on this thing is bad. Before I picked it up on Saturday, it hasn't ran since January and I was easily able to turn...

Looks very clean. Too far away and too expensive for me unfortunately. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Antique-matching-Whirlpool-washer-and-drier-machines-SUPER-SURGILATOR/293991603949?hash=item447343deed:g:c48AAOSwBv9gAL2Z

Ok I am going to go ahead and apologize because I do not have any pictures, but I will do my best to describe it in enough detail for the Maytag experts to be able to easily figure out the model number. This washer looks like it is mid-late 80's and is a Fabric-Matic large capacity machine. It...

So my friends have what I assume is a Maytag A412 in their basement that I hope to try to acquire soon. My goal with it is to refurbish and sell it, but my concern is that with it being a BOL model I may not be able to sell it for a lot, even if I can get it to showroom condition. So my...

Which of the two Maytag trannies do you guys think is better? Helical has a slow 180 degree stoke, while the orbital has a fast 90 degree stroke. Helical is a traditional tried and true design, while the orbital is extremely simple, only has two gears, and uses less oil. Unless someone has done...

After 27 years, my Maytag Dependable Care LAT4914AAE has had its very first problem. It’s beginning to really struggle to get up to speed on both agitation and spin. My first thought was the belts need to be replaced, but that didn’t work. I know these old Maytag’s inside and out pretty well...

Hello. I’ve been refurbishing my 86 Filter Flo washed and the last thing I have left to do is that transmission. I’ve never opened up one of these things before, and I honestly don’t know what to expect. It’s been leaking a little bit of oil too and I can’t figure out where it’s coming from. I...

Several months ago I bought a 1986 GE Filter Flo. Works great! Did some minor restoration on it a while back, and now, being stuck at home with nothing to do, I’ve decided to venture out into no mans land: the clutch. It’s a 2 speed, and I don’t have a flying clue how this thing works. I do know...

Got my “new” Filter Flo up and running recently in great condition. Now all I need is just a dispenser, and I can’t find one anywhere. The part number that I need is wh47x39

A few days ago I bought my first washer, a 1986 GE Filter Flo model WWA8320GALWH. It’s in alright condition, but pretty dirty. I’m gonna begin the long tedious process of refurbishing it. I’ve never done anything like this before so I have zero experience, so I apologize for any dumb things I...

I just recently bought an ‘80s filter flo and it’s matching dryer. (I just wanna say that even though I was expecting a high build quality, I was still shocked by how nice it is, even compared to my dads Maytag dependable care LAT4914AAE from around 1992.) The washer is gonna need a thorough...
