replace basket on whirlpool

I have to replace the basket on my whirlpool ultimate care II washer.
Is it worth doing and is it easy ? or any instructions available?

replacement basket is approx $160 so would rather fix than replace washer.

Appreciate any help

thanks

The basket isn’t difficult to replace and if it saves some money, even better. You will need a spanner wrench ([COLOR=#800080]AP3538707[/COLOR]) to get the nut off that holds the basket in place, but other then removing the cabinet, the agitator, and the tub ring, the basket will come out the top without much trouble.

THanks Brian, appreciate the advice

Glad I could help.
