Horror stories on here of tub removal haven't happened to me YET. The hexagon agitator block came off pretty easily as did the spanner nut, about a half hour total. Also all 4 huge screws holding the tub to the baseplate.
I have unclamped the tub to filter pump port so I can lift out the exterior tub, but can't figure how the main drain hose is assembled into the tub, no clamps down below to undo except at the pump. Does that flange unscrew from inside the tub??
Also, the main large fitting, basket drive block? How does it come off? Theaded, or hammer it up gently? And you can see some small rubber bushing inside of it is bad. Anyone who wants to start listing new items I need to buy, I'll appreciate it.
