I'm afraid you'll need the spanner wrench, but fortunately it's less than $20.00. The aluminum hub nut shown in your pictures is reverse threaded, by the way.
You'll need to remove the top of the outer tub. Then you'll need to remove the aluminum hub nut shown in your picture. Once that is out, you can lift out the cap that sits between the tub and the nut, don't loose it! Then pull the inner tub up and out. What parts do you have? You'll definately need a new washer to go between the outer tub and the support, you may need a new bolt (it has a seal on the underside of the head), there is also a rectangular plate that goes on the bolt shaft on the outside of the support, a lock washer, and finally a nut on the outside of the support. It's not as bad as it may seem, Dave |

I ordered 3 sets of tub bearing and stem seal kits earlier this afternoon. 6-2040130 Tub Bearing Kit 6-2095720 Tub Stem and Seal Kit W10175938 Long Tub Bolt with Gasket W10175939 Short Tub Bolt with Gasket Spanner Wrench I found the short bolt at a better price at a different source but I also needed some other parts from there ... otherwise the lower price doesn't compensate for a separate shipping charge on a 2nd order. |
