The reality is that a decent modern FL will clean far better than the old Whirlpool TL, even if it doesn't last as long. I'd be inclined to keep the dryer in use, though! I'd probably hang onto them both and put a modern FL alongside them... |

These were real work horses but unfortunately the washer leak is probably an outer tub leak.
A new Speed Queen Front Load washer would be the perfect replacement and would easily last as long as these Whirlpools have, I would also suggest keeping the WP dryer, with the money you will save not buying a new dryer you can afford the extra cost of a real SQ FL washer.
You will be amazed how well the old dryer works alongside a new washer that spins twice as fast as the old WP does.
