Noise in spin mode.

GE Spanner wrench with 4 lb short sledge hammer, 1/2 inch socket wrench with 1/2 socket,3/8 socket wrench with 3/8 socket, 7/16 socket 1/4 inch driver and 5/16s driver and putty knife.

I am pretty handy and you have the tools it is okay if you are not this may for you. The basket is a little heavy and the tank with the motor on if you need help get it. I watched a video on UTube there are a lot of repair videos (repair clinic, Fix it with Steve etc). and followed step by step instructions once every item is out it’s pretty simple but make sure that the 1/2 nut is very tight on the flywheel also the spanner nut should be very tight also both loosened up for me and I had to disassemble it again and tighten them both up but it is done now and the machine is quiet on spin cycle.
