APPLIANCEMATES Washer Suspension Rod Kit 4-Pack 23" Stainless Steel – Fits Whirlpool/Maytag Top-Load Models, Reduces Vibration

The APPLIANCEMATES W11130362 washer suspension rod kit is a complete replacement set of four stainless-steel suspension rods, balls and bushings designed to restore balance and reduce vibration in compatible Whirlpool, Maytag, Kenmore and Crosley top-load washers.

If your top-load washer shows an imbalance error, vibrates heavily during spin, or produces unusual noise, the suspension system is a common cause. This kit supplies four 23-inch suspension rods plus five suspension balls and bushings, engineered to match factory dimensions for models including WTW5000DW0/1/2/3, MVWX655DW1, MVWC565FW0/1/2 and many related part numbers such as W10594080 and W10780040. The parts are made from thicker stainless steel for improved wear resistance and longer service life compared with brittle or corroded originals.

How will this suspension rod kit improve washer performance?

Replacing worn suspension rods restores the tub’s centered mounting and absorbs spin forces, reducing shaking and loud vibrations. That helps the washer finish cycles more reliably and minimizes movement that can damage flooring or adjacent cabinetry.

• Re-centers drum and stabilizes tub during high-speed spin
• Reduces noise and rattling caused by worn or bent rods
• Prevents intermittent UL error codes tied to suspension faults
• Durable stainless steel resists bending and corrosion
