 The model number for searching parts is A208. The leading G is a code for the color. This is the bearing kit. This is the tub seal kit. This is an example of the spanner wrench. | ||

When I replace the tub seal do I have to do the bearing as well? Is there anywhere I can look to see how to do this? Ive never done one before Also, stupid question, which dirrection is the thread to loosen, is it normal left hand turn or is it backward. Somebody once told me they were reverse threads | ||

You mean the tub bearing I presume? They usually press out with foot pressure being careful not to bend the tub. Could try large channel lock pliers to twist it loose. | ||

Sad news folks. After spending a ton of money on parts and several hours of work I discovered a rust hole in the tub that is unfixable. So unless I can find a new tub which I highly doubt, the washer is DOA and I have a tools and seals to sell for a 50 year old washer....really bummed | ||
