Product review (2 stars): need additional parts besides this to install
this is not the who part for replacement if you need to replace this n your washer you also need to get a lip for the washer for the locking mechanism. we found out the hard way buy having to order several different ones thinking it was the wrong part. Finally we calle whirlpool and we were told the whole part was redesigned and you also need 1 other part to properly install it. I will add that party number to this review as soon as i can locate the part number.
