Hi Bill, My 1-18's are long gone, as my move to Ann Arbor/ Ypsilanti did not allow me to bring more than one set when I moved I had only two the WC model washer 1-18's and my newest Frigidaire set with the rear controls..The house I originally rented here did NOT have a usable basement, as it was built in 1912 the stairs were on a very steep incline and were only 24 inches wide. NOT a easy place to put anything useable.. That said, the added on laundry room, which I believe was a simple enclosure of the back porch was just large enough for a single set of full size machines. And even now my Frigidaire Front loaders are in my storage unit, hopefully not disentigrating into piles of dust, as I downgraded even more to save money into a two bedroom apartment. The 1-18's were at my folks house for awhile, then after sitting from about 8 months after I moved from my old house, I was politely asked to get them out of their basement as they were doing a re-model. I took them to a "old" friends house who agreed to store them, and as fate would deal me a few more blows before things started getting better, this jac*&ss moved on me to parts unknown, and my machines sub sequentially vanished with him. That sadly said, in the realm of new beows, you'll have to call around. When I obtained mine from Electric Appliance Parts Co. In Lansing, I was told that they last ordered bellows for these machines in 1991-92. Which means by the time I got one for my machine that bellows had sat fro at least 12 years. Yours does look to be okay. Hopefully you have the bellows pliers. You WILL need them. I had to drive to Jackson back then just to find a place that had one, and would let me use them. Chad |

I ordered them from Tribles Inc. (www.etribles.com...) but any Electrolux parts dealer should be able to order them. On the Tribles website click on "parts finder", then on "search for item number", then select Electrolux (WCI) from the manufacturers list, and enter the part # 5300638860. The bellows are $31.49 each plus shipping. |
