Yet another GE Filter-Flo Question!

[bobbyderegis]

The major parts distributors all say the lid hinge pads are NLA. Does anyone know if there are any parts distributors that still have some old stock? Mine are white, and unfortunately the original owners of this machine must have tried to clean them up before selling the washer and gouged the hell out of them. They are also very yellowed. Grateful for any leads!

You can make them yourself

go to a hardware store, like LOWES, in the plumbing section, buy a 4x6 inch sheet of gasket rubber(only comes in red), and cut off a strip for the length you need, and use a hole punch for the screw holes and install....TA-DA

Sorry not to be clear Martin. I am looking for the actual plastic hinges that are visible on the top cover. The parts list calls them "pads" for some strange reason.

Hi Bobby,

Damn....I discarded a FF yesterday.....I could have removed the lid hinges for you.....Sorry!!!!

What is the GE part number? I can see if any Armstrong dealers have them as obsolete inventory.

John: Oy!
Kenmoreguy: I don't have a PN reference. I can look and see if there is a # on the hinges. They are the standard plastic hinges (right and left, different) on all the late 70's and eighties Filter-Flos. They came in white and dark grey, if that helps.
