Since you did not post a model number, I am assuming this is a standard top loading GE washer.
It sounds like you have ruled out the suspension rods, but check each one again as they are your likely problem.
If they are not the problem, look at the clutch assemby that is attached to the motor. In spin mode it should not be moving, and the belt should be horizontal, and not moving up or down.
Let us know what you find, and if you need additional help post the model number and any other info you can think is helpful.
Good luck!

Ok, forget the suspension rods. What you probably have here is a broken air shock. Run the machine with the back cover off so you can see what is going on and see if you can determine if that is the problem.
This is a pretty good machine so I would recommend fixing it, but GE parts are notoriously expensive, so you better be certain that the air shocks are the problem before you invest in them.
Good luck and let us know what you decide and how it works out.
