Washer Repair

I'm having an awful time figuring out why the tub in my Whirlpool washer is sitting off level. If you're looking at it from the front of the machine the tub is leaning to the right. I have checked all the suspension springs and the counter balance spring, as well as changing the snubber pads beneath the skater plate.

I'm not an appliance repairman by any means, but I'm definitely no stranger to repairing all things mechanical. However, this one has me stumped. If anyone has any clue as to where my trouble may be I would greatly appreciate the help. Thank you

Remove and check the balance ring (#14 at the diagram).

If there is nothing wrong then you may want to double check the tub suspension parts.

Here are the breakdown diagrams and Replacement parts for Whirlpool WTW5300SQ0 AUTOMATIC WASHER | AppliancePartsPros.com
