Part W10780045
Purpose
Washer suspension rod kit—stabilizes the inner tub and reduces vibration during spin cycles
Details
This OEM suspension kit includes four robust stainless-steel rods, matching suspension balls, and bushings. Installed around the washer’s inner tub, the rods absorb motion and dampen movement, keeping the drum centered and minimizing chassis vibration. When worn, they can cause loud banging, imbalance errors, or excessive noise during spins.
