Product review (5 stars): Perfect Solution To Eliminate Loud Banging Noises Coming From Your Top Loader
On Whirlpool modular design top loading washing machines this little set raises the agitate gear up above the splines on the shaft during the spin cycles. When worn down the agitator gear doesn't clear the splines enough which allows the agitator to slam into gear momentarily during the spin cycle making a terrible loud banging noise. If allowed to continue it will cause additional damage. The transmission does have to be pulled and opened up to install these parts. But they install easily and they work great.
