the washer tub when on the spin cycle is all over the place, I have replaced all three springs already and it is still doing the same thing, what else could be causing this?

The skate plate and suspention pads are worn out

Look at both sides of the suspension plate, sometimes it doesn't seat right.

Wanted to let you know that this was definitely the problem, once I removed the old skate plate the pads under it were gone. I works like a champ now. Thanks again!

Your skate plate plastic slides may have failed from excessive shaking. To help this I routinely add a helper spring to the rear one. A six inch GE dishwasher spring WD1X1333

The brown pads leave a residue on the skate plate and when it goes into a spin the skate plate will stick on the pads and cause it to shake suspension plate pads should be replaced every couple years.The spring in the back is just a counter weight for the motor and pump. Whirlpool started getting cheap and started producing white plastic suspension pads and those wear out in 6 months or less their junk.The brown ones lasted much longer if a person would scuff up the pads and plate every 6 months or so they would last way longer, These have just been my personnal experiences working for the giant appliance retailer as long as I did thats all I basically worked on is whirlpool
