Thanks a bunch Jeff. I had seen that manual, but I did not know what the spacers looked like, so had no idea how they were supposed to stay in place until the washer and pedestal were connected. Self explanatory now that I see the spacers.
Agreed! If they will solve the problem, very cheap. Worth a shot.
I think I may need to get a pump for this also, because I doubt the pump should make a noise like this one does. It is a lot quieter but still sounds a little weird to me. Our Samsung does not make a pump noise anything like this. When I cleaned the pump out, it was packed with some kind of granular stuff and a few coins. When I say packed, I mean it was packed in the shape of the filter. I'm thinking the pump may have some slight damage even though it pumps very well and the clothes are dang near dry at the end of spin.
Still wonder why it is louder with the pedestal on it. Turning into one heck of a seek and find kind of thing. I put the legs back on the washer and just set it on the pedestal to see what if any difference it made in the sound. It didn't make much difference. Might not be any profit in it by the time I find the solution, but I am curious about it.
Pedestal acting like a speaker?!?Still wonder why it is louder with the pedestal on it.
Impellor cracked, shaft bent, motor got too hot from being jammed, etc, etc....I'm thinking the pump may have some slight damage even though it pumps very well and the clothes are dang near dry at the end of spin.

Anyway to bypass the pump and still get it to run to see if the sound is coming from something else?
What about removing and tape the wires to the pump and lay the hose down when you want the washer to drain but keep the hose up/elevated when washing/tumbling.

You mean remove the pump itself from the bottom of the cabinet? Hmm..
What if I remove the belt then it put in rinse/spin? It will do nothing , right?
What if completely remove the pump and put a test wire to it? 110 ac? If I could do that, might more conclusive results.
I would like to get the pump to operate with no other parts moving to rule out bearings and such.
