Maytag Neptune Bearing Noise

I bought this Maytag Neptune washing machine and dryer in April 2001. At twenty years old, it started getting progressively noisier over the course of several months. This is a common problem with these machines because the seal which is in charge of keeping water out of the ball bearings eventually wears out. This isn't a how-to guide for the repair, just a demonstration of what it sounds like before and after. This is Lorain Furniture's repair guide and it includes info in the description about purchasing the parts:    • Maytag Neptune Bearing Replacement How To ...   This repair video is more detailed and his model is more similar to my machine than Lorain's:    • Maytag Neptune Washer Bearing Replacement ...   Removing my inner bearing went a little more like this:    • Stuck Front Neptune Bearing removal
