What a pain in the rump job Andy. Been there done that. Great video 👍

Thanks Pete! It must be the dawn of the appliance crap out! First my 2 year old fridge died and now the washer! Luckily it was fixable, though it fought me quite a bit. Thanks for watching my Friend! 👍😁

The medal tub makes a good burn barrel you can put a grill on top and cook Another good one Andy 👍

[@FlatThunder]

Good idea Donnie! I think this machine might just get converted into one the next time it fails! Thanks for watching my Friend! 👍😁

Great job saving yourself some money. You sure do have a wide knowledge of mechanical repairs, now I know who to call when ours gives up the ghost. 😆 Are you eating ok, Andy? You're looking skinny!

[@FlatThunder]

Thanks Patrick! I am never afraid to put in a little extra work to save money on appliances. They sure don't last like they used to! I am trimming down a little. I am a big meat eater, but my doctor said I need to adjust my diet or subscribe to the big pharma industry for the rest of my life. I am cutting out a lot of meat and substituting it with rabbit food. Thanks for watching my Friend! 👍😁

[@FlatThunder]

Hi Jon! It was a struggle, I never anticipated it would put up that much of a fight. Thanks for watching! 👍😁

[@grosseileracingteam]

Well that was easy.

[@FlatThunder]

For the life of me, I never anticipated that a plastic actuator would put up such a fight! 🤣. Thanks for watching my Friend! 👍😁

[@HODGEPODGEDODGEGARAGE]

That job didn't look fun Andy! 😣 I feel for you on this one. Glad you got it all fixed up though 🔧🔩

[@FlatThunder]

Thanks Zane! I feel like I've turned into an appliance repairman lately! Thanks for watching my Friend! 👍😁
