Funmit Washer Suspension Rod Kit W10780045 for Whirlpool/Amana 26.7in — 4-Pack with Upgraded Springs and Coated Metal

Funmit W10780045 washer suspension rod kit is a four-piece replacement set that stabilizes top-load tubs and reduces spin-cycle vibration for compatible Whirlpool, Kenmore, Amana and similar washers.

This suspension rod kit replaces worn or broken shock/damper rods that let a washer tub sag, shake or trigger unbalanced-load error codes. The kit includes four rods, ball housings and balls, and is constructed from stainless steel, ABS plastic and silica components with a coated finish and upgraded springs. Before ordering, compare the rods to your originals (approximately 26.7 inches) and confirm your machine model number to ensure compatibility.

How will this kit affect noisy or vibrating spin cycles?

Replacing damaged suspension rods restores the tub’s support and dampens side-to-side movement during high-speed spins, which reduces noise and vibration. Restoring proper suspension helps the washer run smoothly and prevents repetitive stress on other parts.

• Stabilizes the tub to minimize shaking and loud thumps.
• Upgraded springs and brackets hold performance at high RPMs.
• Coated metal parts resist rust and wear for longer service life.

Which washer models and brands are compatible with W10780045?

The kit fits many Whirlpool-family and similar top-load models, including numerous Whirlpool, Kenmore, Amana, Crosley, Maytag, Admiral, Inglis and Roper machines. Use your washer’s model number (found on the door opening or control panel) to match compatibility. Contact Funmit support if you’re unsure; they typically reply within 24 hours.

• Common compatible model series: NTW, WTW, WET and many others listed by the manufacturer.
• Replaces OEM part numbers such as 4282746, AP5971396 and W10537442 variants.
• Rods measure roughly 26.7 inches—verify against your originals before purchase.

What comes in the package and what tools are required to install it?

The Funmit kit contains four suspension rods, four balls and four ball housings—everything needed for a standard swap on a four-rod system. Installation is straightforward for a person comfortable with basic hand tools, but always disconnect power and water first for safety.

• Included: 4 rods, 4 balls, 4 ball housings—complete replacement kit.
• Suggested tools: Phillips screwdriver, putty knife, duct tape or strap, and gloves.
• Installation help: manufacturer videos and customer support are available.

Will replacing these rods fix an error code or balance issue?

If your machine shows unbalanced-load errors (UL/UD/UR types) or the tub visibly sags on one side, replacing failed suspension rods often resolves the problem. The kit helps reestablish proper tub alignment and reduces the likelihood of recurring balance faults, but diagnostics should rule out other causes first.

• Helpful for UL-style unbalance codes often caused by bad suspension rods.
• Reduces repeated vibration that can trigger error codes and shutdowns.
• If problems persist after replacement, inspect springs, spiders and mounts too.

Who is this for: This Funmit W10780045 kit is designed for homeowners, DIY repairers and appliance technicians replacing worn suspension rods on top-load washers in the Whirlpool family and compatible brands. Choose this kit when your washer tub moves excessively, you hear banging or thumping during spins, or the machine displays repeated unbalance errors—provided your model number and rod length match the kit specifications.
