Washer Shaking Violently? Replace the Suspension Rod Kit Before It Damages Your Machine

W11217817 Replaces W11159470 & W11226768 Whirlpool · Maytag · Amana 4-Rod Kit — Complete Set

When your top-load washer starts banging, walking across the floor, or shaking hard enough to rattle the walls during spin, the suspension rods are the first thing to check. Failed rods let the tub swing freely — and every load you run without fixing it puts more stress on the drum bearings, motor mounts, and cabinet. The W11217817 Suspension Rod Kit is the OEM fix: four rods, all hardware included, ready to restore proper tub control and quiet operation.

⚠️ Symptoms of Failed Suspension Rods

  • Washer shaking violently or walking during spin cycle
  • Loud banging or clunking noise — especially at high speed
  • Tub hitting the cabinet walls during agitation
  • Unbalanced load errors even with small, evenly distributed loads
  • Visible tub movement when you push down on the drum by hand

✓ Part Details & Cross-References

  • OEM Part Number: W11217817
  • Replaces: W11159470, W11226768
  • Kit Includes: 4 suspension rods, washers, and nuts — complete set
  • Material: High-strength plastic with integrated spring damper
  • Fits: Whirlpool, Maytag, Amana, and Crosley top-load washers
  • Condition: Genuine OEM — not aftermarket
💡 Pro Tip — Replace All Four Rods at Once:
If one rod has failed, the others are at the same wear stage. Replacing only the broken rod leaves three worn rods doing uneven work — you'll be back inside the machine within months. Replace the full set now and save yourself a second labour call.

⚙️ Installation Notes

  • Skill Level: Intermediate — requires removing the washer cabinet top or front panel depending on model
  • Tools Required: Putty knife, ¼" nut driver, needle-nose pliers
  • Always disconnect power before beginning any repair
  • Each rod hooks into a bracket at the top of the cabinet and a cup on the tub ring — inspect both mounting points for cracks before reinstalling
  • No torque spec required — hand-tight with nut driver is sufficient
