yah looks like all Canadian models had the letter "C" at the start of their model numbers. It's making it difficult to cross reference with the American model number. |

He mentioned .......any belt driven transmission that has the "wig-wag" on it will work. Now where do I find one of these?......lol. I've had a couple of laughs speaking with suppliers trying to locate one. |

The gearcase for these machines is getting pretty scarce these days. I rebuild all of the ones for my belt drives but finding anyone to do that for you anymore is just about impossible. The parts for the rebuild are also disappearing quickly. Were you told why the gearcase needs to be replaced? Usually if little has been done over the years to a machine of this age, it’s probably time for all new water seals, new center post bearings, basket drive or spin tube shaft, and a transmission rebuild.

Hi Kenny, How old is the washer ? 95% of them are the same, But there are at least three different versions that could affect what you need.
We still get in quite a few WP built washers every year that still have perfectly good transmissions where no water has gotten in them, I try to save them if I have time before We scrap the machines.

So sounds to me like the spin tube seal failed and slowly displaced the oil in the transmission with water. The last part number I know of for a transmission was 362901. I would also recommend the replacement of the basket drive or spin tube because that is what caused the oil leaking more than likely. If you’re going to change the basket drive or spin tube, I would personally replace the center post bearings and seals as well.
