Description
If your washing machine is bouncing, try this!
Now includes 4 Foam inserts for Samsung Suspension Rods as well.
For years, if your washing machine was bouncing around, causing noise, unbalanced loads, or other issues, there has been one straight and expensive solution: Replace the suspension rods.
However, in the vast majority of situations where the washing machine has an issue, the rods aren't the problem, per-se, its the dampening system.
Over years of use, factory greases and dampening systems degrade due to general use or more rapidly due to overloading. Our kinematic grease restores your machines damping rods to factory or beyond-factory quality at a fraction of the price.
Additionally packed in the kit are 4x pieces of replacement foam for your suspension system. In many cases, the foam degrades over time, requiring replacement along with the grease. Although potentially optional in some cases, feedback on the foam with the grease has been beyond positive, so they are now included in each pack.
Simply apply the grease to wherever the damping system is, and it will slow the motion of the rods' rapid movement in spin mode. There are many DIY fixes on the market for all model washers, but a factory-designed grease offers a solution for all makes and models of washing machines using rod & spring dampng systems.
Better yet, this works to restore shock absorbers on front load machines too! As crazy as it is, this is a one-size-fits-all solution to one of the most vexxing problems of machines.
Although the grease comes in a 50ml jar, it is enough grease to restore between 4-8 machines. 500ml jars are available for servicers that require larger more frequent repairs of washing machines.

FAST AND FRIENDLY SERVICE. A PLEASURE DOING BUSINESS WITH YOU
Bouncy Kenmore. The video was very instrumental. The kit included everything needed to do the repair. When reinstalled it had no bounce.
Shipping was fast! My 6 year old Maytag Bravo was bouncing and walking so violently I was afraid it was going to fly apart. I started the project at about 11:30 AM and finished in about 2 hours including cleanup.
Observations:
• The grease is seriously tacky. Have a dedicated work bench covered with paper.
• I had to trim the foam inserts by about 1/8" to get the cap to snap back on after I had filled it with grease.
• Be sure to notice the little stabilizing piece below the hanging cap to the washer frame. It is very difficult to remove the rod and re-center it. Trust me, I know.
• If working alone only do two at a time. LF and RB or vice versa.
• Gloves are not a suggestion...you are really going to want to use disposable gloves for the grease part.
• I think it is more balanced now than when it was new.
• The grease is plenty sufficient for more than one job.
• I have added a picture of our washer after the installation. Remember...we nearly had to be armed when we went into the laundry room this machine was so violently shaking. I placed my flashlight on the sloped glass top and it never wobbled during the entire wash cycle and on Max Extract. Heavy towels and work pants were being washed.
• Liberate the "Tech Manual" from the washer cabinet while you have the top off. ;-)
• Recalibrate your washer.
Was skeptical that my washing machine will work with this product but i was wrong! I applied the foam and grease product and gave the machine a run and the bounce is gone! I am so happy. It’s going to be a month and still working great. Thank you!
