The WG04F02344 is the OEM GE replacement strap that restores tub stability and quieter operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat This Part Does\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tub dampening straps suspend and stabilize the inner wash tub inside the outer cabinet. On older top-load GE washers, four straps connect the tub to the four corners of the cabinet frame, absorbing movement during agitation and spin cycles. When one or more straps break or stretch out, the tub swings freely and bangs against the cabinet — causing loud noise, vibration, and potential damage to surrounding components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003ePart Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003ePart Number:\u003c\/b\u003e WG04F02344\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eReplaces:\u003c\/b\u003e WH01X10028, WH01X10046, WH01X2727, WH1X10046\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBrand:\u003c\/b\u003e GE (OEM)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 5 lbs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSymptoms This Part Fixes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLoud banging or thumping during the spin cycle\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWasher vibrating excessively or walking across the floor\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTub visibly swinging or hitting the cabinet walls\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNoise that worsens with heavier loads\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBroken or stretched strap visible inside the cabinet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCompatible Models\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFits a wide range of GE and Hotpoint top-load washers including the \u003cb\u003eGCWN, GCWP, GTWN, GTWP, GHWN, GHWP, GLWN, GLWP, GMAN, GTAN, GIWN, GIWP, GRWN, WBSR, WBXR, WCSR, WCXR, WDSR, WHDSR, WHRE, VBSR, VBXR, VJSR, VKSR, VWSR\u003c\/b\u003e series and many more.

Access the straps by removing the washer cabinet — typically by releasing the front panel clips or removing the top panel depending on the model. Unhook the old strap from the tub and cabinet bracket, hook the new strap in place, and reassemble. It’s recommended to replace all four straps at the same time since they age together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"border-left:4px solid #e67e22;background:#fff8f0;padding:14px 18px;border-radius:0 6px 6px 0;margin:20px 0;\"\u003e\n  \u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 6px 0;font-weight:700;color:#e67e22;font-size:0.9em;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:1px;\"\u003ePro Tip\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp style=\"margin:0;color:#333;\"\u003eAlways replace all four dampening straps at once — if one has broken, the others are at the same age and will fail soon. Replacing just one leaves the tub unevenly supported and the banging will return quickly. While the cabinet is open, also check the suspension springs (if present) and the tub bearing for wear, as these are common companion failures on older GE top-loaders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"XPart Supply Ltd.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50282278158625,"sku":"WG04F02344","price":9.26,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0897\/7783\/2225\/files\/31mxEyX8R1L_ac5914d3-070f-496e-a9e7-7d32fcf78b94.jpg?v=1725979799","url":"https:\/\/xpartsupply.com\/products\/ge-top-load-washer-tub-dampening-strap-wg04f02344","provider":"XPart Supply Ltd.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
