Washing Machine Spring Expansion Tool Washer Inner & Outer Tub Removal Replacement Tool Solid Metal Extending Tool/Stretching Distance From 2" to 5",

Bought this along with a drain pump for my LG front load washing machine. This tool, though only used this one time is invaluable! I could not have completed the job without it. It worked as designed and made the repair go smoothly. Also, there is this You Tube video where someone does this repair by going in from the bottom - IGNORE THAT VIDEO! Get this tool. Also, There is a competing model that does not open as far as this one. I did not try that one but did use the maximum opening and cant imagine that one actually does the job.

I tried very hard to install the outer spring ring for my LG washer without this type tool and only found it's impossible. Then I ordered this because it says suitable for both inner and outer rings and this one has bigger distance between tips than some others. It took me only seconds to put the outer ring on by using this tool, thanks to its 5" stretching distance. It feels solid and easy on hand. Anyone should have this special tool before replacing or cleaning the boot gasket for LG or other compatible washing machine. It'll make your job a piece of cake. I did not do inner ring this time and will update this review once I’ve done.

The tool allows the spring ring around the washer gasket to be removed. Could probably have contrived something but this is more reliable. Not too bad price for something I hope not to use often. The LG version on lint was 5 times more expensive

Use this to replace the outer drum seal on my LG front load washer I've done it several times without a tool and it took me over an hour each time with this tool it took me about 20 minutes it's built fairly solid and I think it's okay for occasional use not sure about long-term regular usage though My only complaint would be that it had some notches in it so the tool didn't slide out so easily when you're trying to open it up.

This is a specialized tool for dealing with Washing Machine retaining springs. It stretches the spring out so you can position the retaining wire to secure the door seal to the front panel. It worked on my LG front loading Washer perfectly.

Replacing a non-functioning drain pump is pretty straight forward. The bad news is the wrangling of the spring-loaded wire loop that holds the door rubber seal to the front panel. Without these pliers, much bad language, time, and likely blood would have been wasted, They are worth it.

Makes a tub gasket repair so easy on my LG washing machine.

I needed this tool bad! Home Depot didn’t have it neither side ace hardware! Only tool I could use to get the washers gasket ring back on. Ordered it on Monday expected it on Wednesday, it ahowed up on Tuesday the next day!! Thank you so much for such fast shipping! The tool works great!
