Description
The Whirlpool W11217817 Washer Suspension Rod Kit restores proper tub balance, reduces vibration, and eliminates excessive shaking in compatible top‑load washers.
The Whirlpool W11217817 suspension rod kit supports the washer tub and absorbs movement during wash and spin cycles. When the rods weaken or the bushings wear out, the washer may shake violently, go off‑balance, or stop mid‑cycle. Replacing the suspension rods restores stability, protects internal components, and ensures smooth, quiet operation.
