If the metal bearing part you're after is this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/NOS-ONE-VINTAGE...
Then have some stashed away, but only the holders, not bearings. As for the rest will have to look. There are also several sources on eBay (a wonderful Maytag wringer repairman from upstate New York sells parts there), and others located elsewhere. In particular an Amish dealer in PA area, but since they don't do Internet you'll have to either go in person, or work out something via telephone and snail mail. |

The pic shown looks like what's called a index slide.
This is what locks the wringer into position and is a fairly common part to break. Good news... both are very easy to replace.. You need to get a new ones.. Sure you can. You can also get a new agitator. Look for Phils Maytag in Ovid NY if you get a hold of him, tell him what you need, hel list the parts you need on eBay as a buy it now |

Haven't given the old girl a work out much, though may haul her out this weekend.
Just setting things up takes awhile so if it is just a small load and am feeling lazy just bung things into the Miele or Oko-Lavamat. Spring cleaning will soon commence, so can see using the wringer for blankets, quilts and other things before they are stored for summer. |

Hmm okay. I may want to call there too to see if they still sell parts. That info is from 2002 but I looked up the phone number and that name is still connected to it. |

Well, hubby found the part number on mine - A-4525 - and the underside of the aluminum one is different enough I'm betting it won't work...must be from an older model. NJK |
