Product review (5 stars): Don't buy a new washer until you try this repair!
Astonishing.  I watched a YouTube video on how to replace these, followed the directions, and VOILA!  No more UNBALANCED loads with the washer stopping every time it tried to spin.  I suppose lots of folks just drop another $1,000 on a new washer.  Here's a fix for the UNBALANCED LOAD stoppage for under $40.  My wife thinks I'm a hero, and we will get another thousand washes out of this (otherwise) wonderful washer.
