I am conflicted, because this product worked perfectly but the washer itself is a piece of cr..p.  I have installed 3 of them now in 4 yrs into this defectively designed washer. I will never buy from Whirlpool again. There is a special tool that makes putting the the final ring in place. I highly recommend that you buy one if you want to install this. Great directions for removing / replacing this on you tube. Must watch before attempting this over 1 hr job.  Whirlpool front loaders should be recalled.
