The washer still gets a UL code when spin is around 9 minutes left. This happens even if nothing is in the washer. At slow spin it appears balanced but once it goes into a faster spin the washer acts like an unbalanced tire on a car. Since not the suspension kit, what do I need to look at next?

The bearings might be going bad. 2. The drive shaft might be bent. both are part of one kit Whirlpool W10435302 Bearing and Tub Seal Kit - AppliancePartsPros.com 3. The basket (inner tub) balance ring might be empty It should have water in it for balance. (Hopefully this is not your problem, very expensive) Whirlpool W10296143 Basket - AppliancePartsPros.com 4. The basket hub assembly might be broken.

Watch these two videos for details to confirm if the rods are good. https://youtu.be/ILYGQ9t0v0Y https://youtu.be/8AvI9ma6rO4
