Our Kenmore washer model 23822100 shakes wildly when spinning.

Looking underneath, the white pads seem to be mostly missing.

The 3 springs from the frame to the drum are intact.

The large triangle movable flat plate is completely free and does not seem to be attached in any way. We see 6 threaded holds in that plate however there are no screws or bolts present.

Is this loose plate supposed to be attached to something and if so, how?

Many thanks ET

The plate floats, but replace the pads as a first step.

The plate has 3 pairs of 2 holes each, which are threaded. Do these holes carry or receive the lower pads - even though the pads seem to just push in, and don't have threads?

Another followup.

Does anyone know if it is possible to replace both sets of pads in this style Kenmore washer, working from underneath, with the washer laid on its back, as opposed to tearing the whole thing down and removing the tub?

You don't need to remove the tub, but you will want to take off the cabinet which is pretty easy. This video here will show you how even though it is for a different repair.
