Look at the suspension rods\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe outer tub in an AquaSmart hangs on four suspension rods, one at each corner of the cabinet. Each rod has a damper that controls how far the tub can swing, so the load stays steady as the basket speeds up. Worn dampers let the tub travel further with every spin. You hear thumping against the cabinet, the machine walks across the floor, or it keeps stopping to rebalance the load. Another tell is a tub that sits lopsided or bounces freely when you push down on the rim with the machine empty and switched off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Fisher \u0026amp; Paykel part 424495P\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlternative number 421127P\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKit of four suspension rods\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor AquaSmart WL70T60 and WL80T65 top load washers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTen models on file\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"part-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eQuantity\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4 rods\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eChanging the rods on an AquaSmart\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTurn the machine off at the wall, unplug it and shut off the taps. Lift or remove the top panel to reach the rod mounts at the corners. Replace the rods one at a time so the tub stays supported, and make sure each one is seated properly at the top and bottom. Once all four are in, run a spin with a small load and listen for knocking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eShould I replace all four suspension rods?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, and this kit includes all four. The rods wear at a similar rate, and pairing one new damper with three tired ones leaves the tub pulling unevenly, so the knocking often comes back sooner than expected.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fisher \u0026 Paykel","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44549267980366,"sku":"424495P","price":158.44,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0768\/3489\/7998\/files\/424495p-genuine-fisher-and-paykel-aquasmart-suspension-kit-4-rods.jpg?v=1792025999","url":"https:\/\/partsshop.com.au\/products\/424495p-genuine-fisher-and-paykel-aquasmart-suspension-kit-4-rods","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
