Product review (3 stars): hmmmm
well, after 4 yrs, i had to replace this from an lg frontloader. the machine was making a lot of noise on the final spin. first i thought it was the bearings, but after disassembling the machine, found out that this arm was corroded/ broken. I guess i never did a periodic wash tub cleaning, but still. It was very dificult to detach the broken piece from the drum because the screws (6) that held them together were like one piece with the thread. It seems like they put some hot temperature silicon on their threads and then screwed them in. At the end i had to use a drill bit to like destroy the last screw that wouldn't give up. Any way, i expect this to last another 4 or 5 years on the machine, providing i remember to clean the washdrum at least once a year with Ajax. This cleaner was the only one that help me remove the detergent dirt from the drum before I installed the new arm. The original screws were useless but i was able to find replacement for them at the homedepot. they were more than a dollar a piece, were stainless, and were the type you screw in with a number # phillips screwdriver. they screwed in so tight that i don't think they'll ever lose. I was thinking about using silicon on their threads but again they went in so tight, i think that would be wasteful and unnecesary. If the washer break again I will just junk it out.
