[QUOTE="ProDave, post: 461186, member: 6969"] I have a Daewoo direct drive washing machine model DWD-G1441S The drum bearings are on their last legs. Is replacement feasible or even possible? I have taken the motor rotor off for a look. I can see the outer bearing and the drum shaft. It looks like a bit of a major strip down to gain access to split the drum outer casing. Then what? First thing would be to push the shaft through and withdraw the drum How do I do that? just hit the shaft with a hammer? Then if I manage that how do I get the bearings out? I assume there will be 2. How tight will they be? can I drive them out with a hammer and a bar? I can't see as I can apply heat as the drum outer casing is plastic. Any thoughts as to whether this is possible if somewhat difficult, or not? [/QUOTE]
