How often do you change a WP belt on an old washer? Or even a Wig-Wag?

Never these days. Used to work on 'em a lot as recently as just a few years ago. I remember the last couple belt changes I did ended up being a bust because it turned out the transmission was messed up. :( Stopped doing 'em after that, wasn't worth the time or mess. Time to move on.

i agree with the master, last few times i put a belt on and started the machine, the centerpost bearings were shot, or the machine began to leak cause all the rust was disturbed

now i just explain to customers that their machine is well past its life expectancy and its time for a new one

i don't even stock parts for these in my van anymore
