34001274 Washer Hanger Spring (Set of 2) – OEM Whirlpool / Maytag
If your top-load washer is shaking violently, walking across the floor, or making loud banging noises during the spin cycle, a failed hanger spring is the most common cause. In most Whirlpool and Maytag top-load washers, the tub is suspended by four hanger springs that absorb movement during agitation and spin. When one or more springs break or lose tension, the tub swings freely and slams against the cabinet. ⚡ Common failure point in Whirlpool-platform top-load washers. Part 34001274 is the genuine OEM replacement set of 2 springs that restores proper tub suspension and eliminates abnormal vibration immediately.

Top-load washers use four hanger springs, and this listing covers two. If your machine has been in service for several years, the remaining springs are likely fatigued even if they haven't snapped yet. Order two sets (4 springs total) and replace them all in one shot — the labour is identical and you'll avoid a repeat repair within the year.
