Bearing kit for the mah3000aww

[fixit guy]

Does anyone know the part number for the bearing kit for this washer? The kit I am looking for  does not include the outer tub.

 

Thanks,

The only bearing kit I can find is the one with the outer tub, I will check tomorrow when I get to work, but I think it's no longer available seperately

I found this Maytag number  12002022.  I think it is correct but not sure.  Says it is a seal kit but photos show bearing also.

It looks like a bearing, but it's not. There are 2 seals in that kit.

Appl. Tech, I do believe that you are correct.  I thought that I recieved a bullitin from Maytag awhile back with a bearing kit but can't  find it.

Thanks

I couldn't find a bulletin on this but I did find these depressing words straight from the service manual.

is required.

Here's the tech bulletin:

And here's the bearing part link:

That's not what fixit-guy is looking for. There was a link to a tool that you could use to remove and reinstall new bearings in the rear tub shell without replacing the whole thing, it also had links to bearings.

I still can't find the one I know I've seen somewhere in this forum, but did find this one: http://beesmart-ezway.com/for_maytag_1.htm

Actually that might be the link, here's the forum discussion where someone used the kit from this company: http://www.applianceguru.com/forum2/11277.html
