Late Model Kenmore top loader

[JWWebster]

I been busy Yall. Late model Kenmore direct drive was not spinning out. I found the clutch liner hangin half way out the clutch. To get into the machine you slip a putty knife under each end and pop a spring loose. The spring will fly out onto the ground and disappear if you ain't careful. Trust me. The coupler was fine. I removed the agitator and tranny. Found the clutch liner hanging out the clutch. The pads thin as a razor blade. I imagine that is why it flew halfway out. Installed another clutch liner.

I don't like those goofy springs either. I just got finished with a Kenmore set with these tonight! I got them dirt cheap!
