Vypart Suspension Rod Kit for Samsung Top-Load Washers — 4-Pack DC97-16350T/U/S, Reinforced Springs & Rust-Resistant Shafts

If your Samsung top-load washer rocks, bangs, or throws imbalance error codes, worn suspension rods are often the cause. This Vypart 4-pack of suspension rods is engineered to match OEM fit and performance for many Samsung models, delivering reinforced springs, rust-resistant shafts, and thicker rubber buffers to absorb shock and reduce noise. The kit is sold with a 10-year manufacturer warranty and includes parts intended for a simple, tool-light DIY swap.

How will these suspension rods reduce noise and shaking?

Worn dampers allow the tub to move excessively during fill and spin cycles. Vypart rods use high-elastic springs and thicker rubber buffers to dissipate kinetic energy before it reaches the cabinet, cutting slamming, rocking, and rattle. Replacing all four rods returns the tub to its intended centered position and lessens stress on bearings and the cabinet.

• Thickened stainless shafts resist rust and bending under heavy loads
• High-elastic reinforced springs improve energy absorption
• Wear-resistant rubber buffers protect against deformation
• Designed to reduce DC, UB, UE, UR, UL imbalance codes
