383EER3001G LG Shock Absorber Kit for Washing Machines

Shock Absorber Kit for Washing Machines

This item is available for purchase individually. It is designed to fit LG washing machines and is compatible with certain Kenmore models as well. The shock absorber kit is an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) part that plays a crucial role in reducing vibrations and stabilizing the tub during the spin cycle. By doing so, it helps prevent the washer from excessive movement which can cause premature wear and damage.

Over time, the effectiveness of the shock absorber kit can diminish due to natural wear and tear, aging of the material, or handling heavier loads which may lead to material breakdown or hydraulic leaks if applicable.

Signs that you might need to replace your shock absorber kit include:

- Increased shaking or vibration during the spin cycle
- Noticeable banging or thumping sounds
- The washing machine moving from its set position
- Additional strain and wear on other machine components like bearings and seals

Replacing a worn or faulty shock absorber kit can address these issues, ensuring smoother operation and extending the lifespan of your machine.
