I bought the bearing replacement kit and press tool from Parts Dr, seemed to go in with no problems.
Now that the washer is back together, it emits a high pitched squeak on any and all spin cycles. I can spin the drum by hand and it is a lower-pitched squeak.
I made sure to run the provided grease into the rubber seal. I read elsewhere it's possible the spacer tube between the two bearings isn't straight.
Do I need to tear this dude apart and replace the bearings again? Might just get a new one at this point!
