New bearings for the drum of your washing machine may be needed, if you are beginning to hear crunching noises while the drum is spinning. The purpose of the bearing is to help rotate the drum, but over time they can be damaged - especially if water gets to them. With this replacement bearing, you could soon be back to having a fully functioning washing machine again - one that sounds and performs as you have been used to. Please check model fit list to ensure this part is correct for your model.
