Rear Tub Gasket 4036ER2004A

The part came fast and fit my LG washer perfectly. I also ordered the two ball bearings, as that was what actually needed replacement. The repair, while overall fairly straightforward, is not without its challenges. In my case the hardest step was removing the inner tub from the outer tub, as the corroded ball bearings had fused to the axle stem. It took PB blaster, patience, and persuasion with a hammer to get it out. I recommend looking up a video with step by step instructions online, it was tremendously helpful.

The video made the job a lot easier, thank you.

The part was an easy install and worked great.

The part was as advertised and I was able to fix the washer my self instead of buying a new one

All the parts were correct gasket great easy job washer works and sounds like new again thanks

Somewhat labor intensive. The learning curb being part of the issue. All of the parts I ordered arrived when I was told they would and were all the correct parts for my LG Washer. Putting it all back together went fairly smooth. Bought a nice fold out work table from Steins, so when I was seating the bearings I had my work at a comfortable height. Saving the old bearings also was a good idea, because you can apply even pressure with the hammer by laying the old bearing on top without damaging the new bearing. Also very important to get your helper to hold onto the wash bin while you torque down the bolt that holds it to the wash tub. The bolt is in the middle of the shaft from the wash bin. That draws it all together. Leave that loose and you will hear a metallic scraping sound on high speed spin. The hardest part was getting the rubber between the wash tub rim and the door rim locked back down. The wire with spring in the middle is hard to stretch over the rim. Definitely took two people. Congratulations to my wife for being so patient with me and helping me get that ring back over that door rubber. Because every time it didn't go on, I blamed her for not holding it in place while I strained to stretch that spring. Repair man's estimate was $1179. My cost right at $96.00 and about 8 hours labor. No way I would have let the service man fix it because you can a new one for that cost and that is what he told me. He would have bought all new wash tub and stainless wash bin. The rear tub gasket was the easiest part of the job to replace. The dot on the o ring type gasket marks the top on the rear tub start point. Cleaned up the slot in goes in and it fit like a glove and no leaks. WE ARE BACK IN ACTION WITH AN 8 YEAR OLD LG FRONT LOADER. I can only hope I get at least 8 more years out of it. Thank you Part Select .

The gasket and two bearings arrived in separate shipments and have been installed into the washing machine which is back in service.

Part shipped quickly. utube helped with the process.

Bearing went out in our front load washer after seal wore out from 12 years of use. This was a suggested replacement in addition and for the cost, it was well worth not needing to disassemble the appliance to fix a leaking, old tub gasket. Repair shop said $500+. Ouch! For peace of mind, we replaced the bearings(front/back), seal, tub gasket, and spider gear all at once. Easy job for anyone that can turn a screwdriver. Beats paying the repairman $80/hr for turning the same screwdriver or paying the cost of a new machine(not impressed with new stuff). Cost of parts and a Saturday afternoon. Time and money well spent on an appliance that really wasn't ready for the scrapper or carried off for "free". I wonder how many machines wind up in the secondary market after simple repairs when the previous owners refused to pay the cost of overpriced labor.

Works perfectly.
