home-made spring tool made with aluminum scraps that I had laying around. I underestimated the utility of this thing!

Thanks alot for the step-by-step and the great pics... I'm really excited to hear that Atlantis can last so long. I like to swap my Whirlpool Gold DD for an Atlantis MAV9750. | ||

Maytag Washer Repair Good job on saving your washer, this machine was the Norge washer design after MT got hold of it. The transmission was designed to be a throw away unit, that is why the cover is crimped in place and no parts are available to repair it, although I am sure with a little determination it could be fixed. | ||

And here's a pic of the 15 year old snubber ring that came out of it. I'm wishing I kept the old transmission for disassembly...the failure-prone center drive gear is available on eBay for $12.
