A high-pitched roar or loud grinding noise during the spin cycle is a clear sign of failed tub bearings. Water leaks past the primary rubber shaft seal and corrodes the steel ball bearings, causing friction. Similarly, worn-out rubber drive belts can slip, stretch, or snap, leaving the drum static despite the motor running.
Replacing bearings requires specialized pullers and complete tub disassembly. We extract the rusted bearings, clean the shaft spindle, fit original double-lip water seals with grease, press new SKF/metallic bearings, and install heavy-duty reinforced drive belts.
We spin the drum by hand to check for resistance and grinding sounds.
We safely split the outer tub and pull the drum shaft out using hydraulic press kits.
We press new steel bearings, apply water-resistant seal grease, and insert seals.
We mount the tub, fit a new drive belt, adjust motor brackets, and test performance.
