Look for white powder underneath the machine. If it is there, the snubber

is likely the problem. Also you can operate the machine with the front panel off and see if there is a problem with the springs or support structure.

Replaced Transmission pulley & Bearing Kit, Drive Belt,Snubber ring and Drain pump with pulley.Now I have new problem, from rinse to spin cycle the washing machine was rock back and forth, shakes, pounding and tub

Operate it with the front panel off. See if you tell if it is the springs. Look for more white powder, the snubber may still be a problem.

Already changed snubber , inspected the springs looks OK.

I understand you already changed the snubber, but it can still be the problem as it may not be on correctly, or if what caused it to be a problem before is still present.

Operating it with the front panel off is about the only way to try to see the problem.

Good luck.

My washer 10 years old , should I replace all suspension springs even though still looks good. I double checked snubber and looks good, that is brand New.

It is hard to say from afar, there can be a problem with the springs that you cannot see, or a problem with the suspension support structure that you cannot see.

The vibration type problems are sometimes very difficult, and at some point, particularly with a machine that old the better solution may be to just replace it with a new one. A good basic top loader is all you need and you can get one for $300-$350 in our area.
