Well, she was washing along just fine until she started draining near the end of the wash!! I quick spun her out and took out the pulsator to see what happened and sure enough, the bellow is torn! CRAP!!!!! What now?

Have you been overloading massively and consistenly like me or was it a foreign object in your pocket. If you find two bellows, one for you and one for me, I'll pay for both. I was a rich old man before the crash, but I've got a few bucks left;'D

Here's a shot of the BELLOWS water level without re-circulation.

That sucks...
Isn't that bellow one of the easiest things to replace?

Bellows

Seems to have lots of vintage Frigidare parts, and on more than one occasion have seen a bellow.
