Has anyone tried doing different agitators in a Maytag washer? I’m thinking about purchasing this agitator and fitting it in my Maytag A512 long stroke, on the flipside, has anybody put a power fin agitator into a Maytag Wringer?

Been there The wringer agitators don't fit securely on the Automatics. IIRC they ride high on the post and pop up and off after a couple of oscillations.
I tried a couple and then I found a wringer "style" agitator that was made for some of the BOL automatics in the early sixties. I though these were interesting because they disappeared under the high water level. Maytag even made accessory fabric softener dispensers that fit on top of them.
Vice versa should work but I think they wont seat completely on the wringer posts.

Usually due to differences in splines winger agitators won't work for most Maytag automatic washers, and vice versa.

Okay, although the funny thing is the Westinghouse wringer washers do have the same spline as the Maytag, as the Westinghouse and Simpson/Pope use the same transmissions, as I know The agitator spline is physically the same on a Pope/ Simpson wringer washer So I’m sure they’ll fit, | ||
