Mr. Sessler, I have a wcvh6800j1ww and would appreciate those bearing numbers if you had a minute. Your a kind fella!! You are appreciated I guarantee. If you had a seal number that would be over the top.

Thanks Jerrod, That worked great. I guess that is why you are the professional and not me. The inner bearing was seized onto the shaft. I had to cut it off. Do you know if the inner and outer bearings are the same? You said in your video that they were not difficult to find.What should I look for? Thanks again for such great help.

I can't get the outer tank of of the shaft to the inner drum. I've pounded on the shaft QUITE hard, but it will not come out of the bearing. Am I missing something. There doesn't seem be any locking mechanism. I'm worried that I'll break something.

Will your repair kit work for a GE 2.2 DOE CU. FT. FRONTLOAD WASHER (WCVH4800KWW)?

When pressing the new bearings into place make a tool or use a socket that will apply your pressing force only on the very outside lip flange of the outer race of the bearing ,, do not press the bearing by hitting or applying  pressure to the inner race or you will likely damage the new bearing.

WPXH214A0WW GE Profile 02/02 Great Video.  I want to be sure I have a bearing problem.  My machine has operated great for years.  Coming off high speed spin it sounded like a belt separated with a spontaneous thump, thump, thump.  (Still do not know where the cat is).  With such confidence, I captured the model number, and ordered a belt.  My machines are stacked in an upstairs closet in a galvanized pan, on hardwood floors so I waited to have the part before pulling the machine.  I built a base and slid the stacked machines into the hallway, pulled the washing machine rear cover and discovered the belt looks perfect.  Can the bearings spontaneously & catastrophically fail similarly?  My shocks and springs look fine to me.  Is there a way to test those before I move to the bearings?  Don't try this at home.  I ran the machine at fast spin, empty and dry, and inspected the movement, very smooth until it hit that resonance again.  It started to shake again.  I pulled the front left shock forward and it immediately stabilized.  Any other trouble shooting before I purchase parts that might be unnecessary?
