I meant to ask if the outer tub is under the lifetime warranty. The serial begins with 0707........ | ||

I would assume so, if there is a lifetime warranty on the outer tub, it should apply here, the outer tub failed because of a fault of the washer. Seems like older ones had a 10 year warranty on the outer tub, not 100% sure though. Call a Speed Queen dealer and ask. Keep us updated! | ||

 The warranty document provided on SQ's web site for the model of question states Lifetime limited warranty on the stainless steel tub and outer tub against rust or corrosion. Leaking from the bearing seal technically is not a material failure of the tub but wear/deformity such that fit of a replacement bearing is impacted could be considered as such. However, that's not rust or corrosion (which typically such coverage is intended in regards to failure to hold water) ... so remains to be determined what is SQ's interpretation of the situation. | ||

Wow this is sad to see. When one pays a sizable premium for a consumer good, based in part, or perhaps solely on the warranty, then having to jump through hoops to recieve proper customer service...well that only reinforces in the customer that the best deal is the cheaper deal, as instincts tell us: "Well it broke, good thing i didn't pay much, i'll just get another." So yes, great, HQ is on your side, but why not the dealers? And how can one's take away be anything other than: if you buy SQ better not move, or better hope your dealer stays in business, cause to the other SQ dealers you're dirt.

You're dirt. Another case of SQ dealers shirking the duties Alliance has authorized them to perform.
It seems John L. is the only servicer out there that readily provides warranty parts or repairs.
I don't get why Alliance hasn't addressed this issue. It's not uncommon, nor is it isolated to one particular part of the country. | ||

Nice Rebuild You do not need to use any anti-corrosion materials around the holes where the suspension braces mount to a SQ TL washers outer tub, unlike a MT helical drive washer no part of these bolts and hole in the outer tub ever touch water.
SQs outer tub design is much better that MTs for this reason, even Norge had the better design of not having the suspension bolts trying to hold water, LOL.
Your repaired SQ will probably run a long time, however I would have installed a NEW transmission if I wanted the washer to be as good as new and last a really long and run as quietly as a new one, SQs transmissions are not one of the better transmissions ever used in a TL washer.
