Loud Washing Mashine? Replace Bearings - Maytag Bravos XL

- How to replace and install the drive shaft bearings on a washing machine. Yep, that's simple and easy.
No project around the house is too big for Stan Sullivan. So when the washing machine started to get so loud that I had to close
the laundry room door in order to have a conversation with my wife I knew it was time to snap into
action. Of course she wanted to call a repair man. I said "What you talkin 'bout. I am a repair man."
After ignoring a disapproving look I then looked online for the parts I need for my specific machine and
off I went tearing down the washer. The main thing that makes this repair job look difficult is the
number of steps needed to get to where you need to be in order to replace the parts that went bad. However,
if you take it just one step at a time this job like so many others is Simple and easy.

I currenly do not have issues with my machine. I just wanted to stop in and say how great it is to see new content from you. I love your wood working projects and really hope to see more from you!
Wow!! Sir, you are a gifted educator! I am so impressed by your patience, reasoning ability and teaching gift!!!! You literally need your own academy and network! Bravo on you Bravos repair (no pun intended😉) 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Thank you LaJessica. Those are kind words.
Great to see you back! I hope you're doing well, and I look forward to more upcoming videos.
I have to say, you make it look a lot easier than other videos I have seen!
THANK YOU ! That's an amazing video you've created. Very clear and ALMOST makes me think I can do my own repair ! Wait ... I DO think I can do it now ! Thanks !
Welcome back! 4-5 years old Maytag? Wowza so much for the lonely repair man.
Yeah not exactly a ringing endorsement of the brand is it.
I am doing it for the second time on mine. 6 years old. Crying shame.
@@bbreede1 Sorry to hear that. I have a 1984 model and it's never need repair. I think I'll hang on to it !
Glad to see you back!
Thanks for posting this, our washer just started making noise and it sounded like a bearing to me. Now I know how to fix it!
Yeah, Stan the man is back. Welcome brother!
Great informative video. Helped me to realize that it's time for a new washing machine. My Maytag Bravos XL is making the kind of noise you mentioned at the beginning. Been doing that for the last month. Replacing the bearings seems too daunting! But I wouldn't know that until you showed us how. Thank you.
Glad it helped in some way! Happy shopping.
Glad to see a new video!
glad your back!
STAN THE MAN IS BACK!!
Do you have a link to the part you bought that comes with the tool?
Nice to see you back Stan, hopefully this isn't a one off like the last video you did.
I did send you an email to see if you were ok, but no reply, but what the heck.

That was an amazing repair video
Thoroughly entertained, great video. I just wish you would have had a video of the washer acting up in cycle.
Stan, thank you. Followed this step by step today and the noise is gone. Even better its not leaking.. LOL
Awesome.
You crack me up.. luv it. Thanks for the video. I'm definitely subscribing
Thanks for subbing!
Thanks for the video
Holy Bananas! You're back!!!! Had to comment before watching.
Hopefully more on the way. It's a new year!!
@@simplyeasydiy Right Arm Man!
You wouldn't happen to know which kit you used would you? I need to do this repair and have seen many questionable kits that replace a bearing with a washer.
Where did you get the parts for the repair? Part numbers? Thanks
What sealant did you use?
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Hi Stan, I am not 100% sure, but I do think you are not supposed to have live ants running around the bottom of the washer drum. I have not seen you on U tube for a wile and I had forgotten your brand of humor, please keep the videos coming as your audience enjoys them when we see them.
Where feeding those guys. Trying to build up the population and all...Hehe!
The Maytag Bravo I'm looking at looks the same inside but it's a model without a glass lid it's much easier to lift the top though since it only has a couple of Clips in the front holding it down and it lives up like a car hood. In other videos the agitator spins freely from the tub I didn't see you demonstrate that mine won't spin independently from the tub which makes me think that it has a failed seal and it's probably seized up with rust in the bearing. Since you're model looks similar to mine maybe you can tell me does your agitator spin freely from the tub
Hey I’ve got this same model, thinking about trying this repair. Did this work for your machine?
Hello ! Great video. Our machine it's very loud and we need to replace the bearing, what's the name of the sealer that you used? Thank you in advance.
I'm sorry I can't remember. If I can find it in my tool box I'll let you know.
After replacing tub bearings, tub won't spin
Is the IBB channel still going to be dead? WR is much worse than when you left, but maybe you can pick up battle of titans, or BOT for short.
Well Hello. Long time no hear. Glad to see you still around. It is dead for now but I've been kicking around a few ideas. Maybe combine it with Simply Easy Homesteading channel and do gaming with vlog videos. Still in the works. Peace.
