Could you guys help me identify the problem & how to fix it? Here's a video with the sound: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fXgQQhug9fQ Thanks!! Clocker

I lubed up the bushings at the top of the suspension rods but that didn't do anything. As I was more clothes, it seems maybe the sound is getting worse. I would appreciate any help or advice. Thanks, Clocker

I just finished removing both pumps and inspecting them to see if any debris was inside that could have been making noise during agitation. Nothing there. Really stumped. I guess it is the brake that causes the drum to stop that's making the noise. Not what I was hoping it would be. I think that is expensive and difficult to fix.
