Product review (5 stars): Saved cost of new washer!
Our 7 year old Whirlpool washer started getting out of balance no matter the size of the load. It finally got to a point that it was leaking water. I did a google search and found these things were possibly the cause of the problem. Didn't make sense how they could go bad.  I ordered a set, tor the washer down. The original ones had seized to the frame.  The new product has a insert that goes into the frame to prevent that.  I could have probably lubricated the original parts and made them work, but the leak had wrecked the down stairs ceiling so figured fix it right. The installation took maybe 20 minutes and was fairly easy.  I put a comforter in as my test load. No issue!  The washer works as well as it did the first day.  We have run probably 50 loads through it since the installation of the parts and not a single un even load.
