    Rebuilding old tub/lip seals on rare/vintage machines

    Reply #2 When I was referencing "and I don't think that many seals were sold in 2.5 years from between when I got the machine and when the part was discontinued" I acquired the machine in 2020 just before the plandemic and had to replace both bearings and the tub seal. I wanted to order another...

    Rebuilding old tub/lip seals on rare/vintage machines

    I wanted to order a second tub seal for my Maytag Neptune TL and recently the part has gone NLA! The machine is less than 20 years old and I don't think that many seals were sold in 2.5 years from between when I got the machine and when the part was discontinued. I really hope there are seals as...

    The Great Debate. Gas vs Electric Dryers

    My opinion here is based on what my experience has been using almost every major dryer design on the market either myself or at friends and relative's houses. In both Gas and Electric. In my opinion, Electric Dryers are superior to Gas Dryers and here's why. Based on my experiences on my own...

    Glenn is correct. Mine is also March 2005. I found one part inside of it that was labeled 03-09-05 inside and that just so happened to the day I found mine. 03/09/2020

    GE Laundry Center GUD24ESSJ0WW

    Combo52 With the bearing failures are you talking about the gearcase or the entire tub assembly? The gearbox comes with a new lip seal and bearings. You were also correct that these are made and designed by GE and I also believe they're made in Mexico based on the motor control unit having...

    GE Laundry Center GUD24ESSJ0WW

    A while ago my dad brought home this GE GUD24ESSJ0WW from the used appliance store scrap heap. The unit was dropped and needed a new lidlock and dryer timer. The original intention was to fix it up and bring it over to a rental property that a friend of ours owns but it didn't fit in the space...

    Supco Shock Absorbers are JUNK

    I'll probably pull the shocks out tomorrow, stay tuned. If they have more than the 1/4" of free play when they were new. I'll order those dual stage shocks.

    Supco Shock Absorbers are JUNK

    Reply 1 When these shocks were brand new, there was only about a quarter inch of free play at most. I don't remember being able to push down the tub when they were new. I do know that it's normal for the tub to go back and forth but I believe it's supposed to not go up and down so easily. It is...

    Supco Shock Absorbers are JUNK

    I had to replace the shock absorbers in my Frigidaire Gallery GLTF1670AS1 last winter. I purchased the Supco shock kit. 5304485917 is the part number for the shock kit. I installed them according to the instructions and 2 and a half months of use later, the shocks are already worn out. I'm not...

    Frigidaire Gallery unusual spider arm failure.

    Don't worry this isn't the machine I just rebuilt last year. Today me and my Dad removed a Frigidaire Gallery Front Load washer under the Kenmore name from a friend's rental property. We swapped in a donor spider that was still in great shape 5 years ago and now the issue has reoccured after...

    Costco Kirkland Signature Laundry Detergent corrosion inhibitors?

    The ingredients of the bottle of the Costco Kirkland Signature Laundry Detergent that I am now using has the ingredients clearly visible but I can't seem to find anything that immediately sticks out to me as a corrosion inhibitor. Do I need to purchase sodium silicate and use it alongside the...

    2006 Kenmore Elite Calypso

    End of final spin fluff. I don't really understand why they decreased the fluff time from 30 seconds to 10 or 8 seconds on later models. When I do towels in mine, I usually put it in diagnostic mode and run a 300NPM dry nutation for 30 to 45 seconds.

    Death of ScantPear2004's mechanical Whirlpool Catalyst DD washer

    Replies 1 and 3 I do agree with your points and it does get annoying at times. I do agree that he could put better effort into his videos, Though If you don't like them then please don't watch them (I'm not trying to be disrespectful, just saying) I also agree that he screws with stuff too...

    Dexter T-400 Washer Install Torture

    @launderess What do you mean I'm getting closer? You mean that I am thinking more for a proper installation. The way I am going to get water to the machine is that my laundry room is conveniently behind the back garage wall. To drain I'm going to dump the machine into a plastic tote that is the...

    Dexter T-400 Washer Install Torture

    I found a safe workaround. I'll just install the machine in the garage. The garage is literally right behind the laundry room wall and the floor in the garage is thick enough to support the machine.
