Unit leaks water during cycle from center bottom of tub where top of trans. enters/connects. Suspect a seal has worn. What is recommended to disassemble (what order) to gain access to and replace? Tub has 3 support brackets with heavy dampering springs all surrounding the trans. (inverse tripod shaped). Any info. would be appreciated. Thankyou, Dave.

This repair job is somewhat difficult and requires special tools to do, so it will best to hire a repairman. Unless someone will lend you the tool and you are mechanically inclined. Expect a high repair bill though but you can’t hardly get this washer any more and it was the best ever made. To be honest I would rather spend $300 dollars on that machine then buy a new one. But before you fix it be sure to check the tub for bad rust spots because you don’t want to fix it if the tub is rusting out.

Thankyou, Applianceman, I am checking out the website right now. Will let you know how I make out! I think it will be worth it if successful - I got the machine for $10 bucks!
