Product reviewsWhirlpool W10435302 Tub Seal and Bearing Kit

Not Sure This Is OEM Standard

After purchasing a budget suspension rod kit for my Whirlpool Cabrio washer, I have to be cautious about recommending this kit. The reason is that the budget suspension rod kit failed immediately, and I had to spend the money for an OEM quality kit. That may not be fair, this is a different set of parts, but one bad apple (experience) affects the rest The shaft, bearings, and tub seal seem to be of good quality. but I'm still not sure if they meet OEM standards. Time will tell the tale on that. The parts all installed smoothly, and are functional, but, again, the true test is how long they last. I was disappointed to see the sealant and grease came in unlabeled, generic tubes, so I had to squirt out some to see what was what. Not good. I ended up using a marine sealant and grease I purchased at Lowes. I've learned my lesson about budget parts. I will update the review after a period of time. Read full review...

Ole sorry Chinese bearings!!!

The bearings have already started roaring within a month mainly because they are Chinese brand cheap material made bearings. The manufacturer would like to blame it on the installation as the problem but I can assure you that it takes a few special tools and years of knowledge to stand by my workmanship knowing it was installed correctly. So good luck finding American made bearings or throw the washing machine away with new one!! I know I installed the bearings and seal correctly!!! So be it!!!!!!!!Read full review...

Great supplement to a incorrectly done bearing repair. Had new bearings and grease (no glue). Redo is still working great!

After replacing the Tub into the washer too soon, my first repair on the Kenmore did not last because the glue did not set correctly. This item was a great supplement to my first kit that let me re-use most of what I had to re-do the repair correctly. Luckily I had enough glue left over from the first repair, this kit DOES NOT come with glue. Redo of the repair is working great.Read full review...

Good value

I purchased this product as the seal failed in my Maytag Bravos washer. The washer was making a loud noise during the spin cycle. Having replaced many bearings in antique cars, I chose not to purchase the installation tool. Following the included directions was easy and the fix went well. The washing machine is quiet and like new. Good product.Read full review...

Perfect

Bought this to fix a Cabrio that was given to me for free because it wasn't washing properly anymore and they didn't have the time to repair it. I got these parts very quickly and they were packaged perfectly. It took me a couple hours to replace them because the old ones really liked being in there and refused to come out. But once I got the old parts out, these new ones fit like a glove with very little install hassle. I have read reviews on others buying these parts and most were saying things like "I wish it came with more glue" or I wish it came with the grease". Let me tell you, I don't know what parts they were ordering but this is the COMPLETE kit. It has more than enough grease and glue to install 3 baring and shafts so I don't know what those reviews were talking about. I had no issues with getting exactly what this company was advertising. I would definitely buy from them again. Yes, you can buy this kit cheaper but why would you want to put a substandard parts in? This kit is a OEM exact replacement direct from Whirlpool.Read full review...

Washer is running great - no more vibration and noise.

Package had all the parts I needed. No real instructions to go with it so that was the only drawback on this, making sure I put the parts where they went.

oem bearing kit

this kit was more money than the "quality" bearing kit but it is oem and hopefully will hold up better than knockoff brands..it had everything i needed but i watched a youtube video to do the job right rather than try and figure out the written directions that came with the kit...it took me most of a morning but i also did a lot of cleaning while i had it apart..if your mechanical ability is fairly good go ahead and get this kit and save yourself a couple hundred dollars and you still have the special tool for the next time...washer is so quiet now you wonder if its even running compared to the 747 airplane sound it made beforeRead full review...

Product performs as advertised! ...problem fixed...

Full disclosure, since I don't know where Whirlpool sources their bearings, but these had engraved made in China, same as the last set/kit I replaced three and half years ago in 2020 that weren't OEM which btw looked extremely similar. Only time will tell, but it did fix my problem.Read full review...

Easy to assemble.

Great value and not really that hard to assemble. Less than 2 hours from start to finish and no special tools are required. The bearings placed in easily with a block of wood and a hammer, being careful with the alignment and a piece of pvc worked well for the seal placement. At this price worth a try compared to calling a technician.Read full review...

Works great

DIJ and save $400. This is an OEM kit and works great. I've done dozens of bearing repairs using this kit. Not real easy but not brain surgery either.
