My husband went ahead and tore down the noisy washer. We are at the point of a bad bearing in the bottom of the tub. How do you remove this bearing, as the tub is plastic and could poss. damage easily.
This is a big job! Go to web site %url% and download the 16022937 Maytag Amana service manual.
You will need the special spanner wrench and maybe a gear puller. I use pieces of metal or washers to spread the tub springs, no need for the special spring spreader.
I have turned down this job before, too hard and risky.
Thanks, looked all over for a manual. We didn’t get to the point where we needed the springs removed. The bad bearing was in the outer tub.
