Well Jon, we have matching twins I see! Very fun set!
Somethings have been spotted galumphing across the plains of New Jersey

Help Support :
Jon, my washer is also A28A. The dryer is model 109. Incidentally, the date stamped on my washer's timer is Dec 8, 1959 which also happens to be Louis' birthday...
I have such a bond with that machine. lol
Louis, what a cool coincidence! No wonder you like these SQ machines so much... LOL
Great vintage SQ find!
There are no queens like old queens!

That's cool we have the same model!
This is a nice machine. I like the construction of it!

I got my work cut out
For me. It was used - and someone replaced the center post but forgot the
SS washer under the drive block -
The outer boot is shot - so I'm gonna go all the way
Down to the spin bearings now.

I'll check my timer today and see if there is a date! Wouldn't it be wild if they were made the same day?? That would make Luigi -Super Timeless !
Rich, Yes I love the high vane agitator! Nothing escapes the power of Speed Queens exclusive bowl washing magic! But its real splashy, on my '57 1/4 of the wash water is out over the tub before the cycle is done. When I put in the low plastic agitator that doesn't happen.
When I first noticed this I thought that the sediment tube hole was leaking there was so much missing water.
And now foolishly I have left all my spare parts down at the Cape since I was working on the Easy there several years ago !! Oh well off I go...

Thanks a million Jon!
Grainger
The Dayton item number listed is an oldie. If someone is order these from Grainger, here's the breakdown:
(2) belts needed : SQ # 20185 >> Industry # AX26 >> Grainger # 6A115 (28" by 1/2" by 5/16" width)
(1) belt needed : SQ #20186 >> Industry # AX34 >> Grainger # 6L234 (36" by 1/2" by 5/16" width)
<strong>Note that AX indicates a cogged belt. The 4L280 is the solid version of the cogged 6A115</strong>

Another belt source is McMaster Carr
The AX26 is 6054K118 and the AX34 is 6054K112
The McMaster price is about 60% that of the Grainger price, no surprise there. Grainger is a great supplier, but they sure seem to price everything like they are the only source

Thanks for the correction
Guys !
I did get the belts from McMaster-Carr.
Funny Ben, the original belt off the machine 20185 is stamped 4L280 on it but it is cogged! Odd.

I love the sound of that stainless tub!
OOOO! AAAAAAH!
Glad you got them dispensing again, Jon - that is one stunning washer.

Automatic Washer with "Conditioning Center"
Many hours of work pays off Jon, looking great and glad to se the dispensers working (hadnt realised they where "Automatic" until I watched Eddys vid by Greg) such a smooth action and a built to last design.
Now for the Rosalie`s product placement for posterity !!
