Product review (5 stars): Well priced great product
A part to remedy your whirlpool direct drive woes. Machine does not engage your spin cycle? This is probably what you need (and somebody who knows how to install it as well).
  This is a relatively labor intensive job, no where near as simple as a replacing a timer but, no where near as annoying as figuring out and repairing an old 'wigwag' either.
  Color coded springs are challenging in low light conditions, but match coil density to old unit and it should go well. There may be some grease in your old clutch assembly so give that a cleaning as well. Spanner wrench for tube nut really prevents damage here too.
  Overall: great product for exceptional price.
