Tub seals have not been a problem with these units, I would pull the front off the washer and see where the leak is coming from. If its the trans. lower bearing thats noisy, then you should replace the transmission. The transmission is supported at the top by a BUSHING in the tub, Bushings don't get noisy!!! PS. find a tech in your area and borrow his spanner wrench. (Be really nice!!!!!) The wrench is PRICEY!!!!
