Sounds like I have somewhat same problem but I cant figure out how to open top part of agitator to get down to dog ears. (or bolt) does the top part just get pried and pull off?

As you can see on the diagram, you have to remove the fabric softener dispenser, the inner agitator cap and the agitator bolt.

Here are the break down diagrams for the Whirlpool washer Model LSQ8543JQ0

Thanks Gene, I just wanted to know if the top of agitator pulled off or what. After sending message I tried it and no problem I see the bolt. I can see the dog mechanism (clutch thing) looks like the problem. I've been a mechanic all my life but lost some confidence at age seventy. I'm going to order the kit right away. Thanks again. Great site. ohgee. (now I hope I'm sending this to the right place)
