Maytag A107 1974 model, no spin, au contraire, hein?!
After much travail, soaking the stem with home brew penetrating oil--ATF+Acetone, 1:1 suspension--for a week plus, then trying to use the newer Whirlpool, Supco spanner wrench on the mounting stem, banging my head--the later model wrench fit less than tightly on the old '74 A107, the shaft seemed to break loose. I dared to try it--the tub turned in spin cycle, hah? I ran the old lady through a regular medium load cycle and she bopped, fill, agitate, drain-spin, rinse, drain and spin to damp dry, mirabile dictu?!
One step at a time--tiny triumph
