Basket and Tub Removal 
The Backsplash, Lid and the Top cover need to be removed to access the suspension  
brackets in the front and rear. See those instructions 
Remove the Impeller nut, impeller and the Hub Nut (REVERSE 
THREAD) first. Then remove the suspension brackets the hold the 
tub to the apron by removing the 16  ¼ inch HEX screws.  
The drain hose will also need to be removed from the tub.  
NOTE: Use a pan to catch excess water in the drain hose. 
Also be sure that the harness that goes to the sub assembly is 
moved to the sides of the apron so they are not damaged during 
Tub Removal. 
Lift the rear suspension bracket up off the apron. Remove the 
Rod and Spring assembly from the tub and set on the floor.
