W10247710 - Genuine OEM Whirlpool Top Load Washer Suspension Rod Kit (4/Pack)
The W10247710 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Top Load Washer Suspension Rod Kit (4/Pack) is a factory-certified replacement designed specifically for top-load washing machines. Manufactured by Whirlpool, this OEM suspension system kit ensures proper tub balance, reduced vibration, and smooth operation during wash and spin cycles.
Available through Appliance Kingdom with fast Canada-wide shipping, this kit is a proven solution for one of the most common washer issues—excessive shaking and unbalanced loads.
Function & Importance of the Suspension Rod Kit
This suspension rod kit includes:
-
4 suspension rods
-
4 suspension balls
-
4 bushings
These components work together to support the washer tub and absorb movement during operation. The rods connect the tub to the washer frame, stabilizing it and preventing excessive motion during high-speed spin cycles.
Why OEM matters:
Genuine OEM suspension rods are engineered with precise tension and durability. Using the correct kit ensures:
-
Proper load balancing
-
Reduced wear on internal components
-
Quiet and stable washer performance
When suspension rods wear out, the washer can lose stability, leading to severe vibration and long-term damage.
Common Symptoms of a Faulty Suspension Rod Kit
If your top-load washer shows any of the following issues, replacing the suspension rods can often resolve the problem:
-
Washer shakes violently or “walks” during spin cycle
-
Loud banging or knocking noises
-
Tub appears off-balance or sagging
-
Washer repeatedly shows unbalanced load errors
-
Excessive vibration even with small loads
Will replacing this fix your issue?
Yes—if your washer is unstable during spin or cannot maintain balance, worn suspension rods are one of the most common causes, and replacing them typically restores normal operation.
