Washer Off Balance? Easy Fix for Whirlpool, Amana, Roper & Inglis (With Shock Kit Guide)

Is your top-load washer shaking, walking, or banging during the spin cycle? This common issue is usually caused by worn-out suspension rods (shock kits)—and you can fix it yourself without calling a tech.

In this video, I show you how to stop the noise and stabilize your washer with a simple shock rod replacement. This applies to most Whirlpool, Amana, Roper, and Inglis top-load models.

✅ DIY-friendly
✅ Works on many Whirlpool-style machines
✅ Great for homeowners, flippers, and resellers
