This nut is what secures the wash basket to the transmission's drive spline, holding the entire tub assembly firmly attached to the drive system. Every time the washer agitates or spins, this single nut is what keeps the basket properly seated and aligned rather than shifting or working loose under that repeated mechanical load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOver years of use, or from overloading the washer with oversized loads, this nut can loosen or wear enough that the basket no longer sits securely. A failed or loose hub nut typically shows up as a basket that wobbles or feels loose, unusual noise during agitation or spin, or in more advanced cases, a basket that isn't properly engaging with the drive system at all. It directly replaces AP5793681, 3029784, and PS8757009.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pom-qa\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-qa-label\"\u003eQuick Answer\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eWH02X10363 Genuine OEM GE Washer Hub Nut\u003c\/strong\u003e fixes GE, Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore top-load washers with a wobbling or loose-feeling basket, unusual noise during agitation or spin, or a basket that isn't securely engaging with the drive system.

Wear work gloves and safety glasses. Remove the fabric softener dispenser to access the agitator\/auger assembly. Use a screwdriver to puncture through the inner shaft of the auger, then twist clockwise until the auger releases — this step can be difficult, and you'll need to hold the basket steady to keep it from rotating while you work. Lift the auger out. Remove the 11mm bolt underneath, then lift out the base assembly to expose the hub nut. \u003cstrong style=\"display: inline; font-size: 15px; text-transform: none; letter-spacing: normal;\"\u003ePer GE's own guidance, removing and installing this nut requires a 90 ft-lb torque-limiting extension (GE part WX05X10028) along with a 1-5\/16\" (33mm) impact socket (GE part WX05X10022). Using a standard impact wrench without the torque limiter risks over-torquing, which can damage both the new nut and the washer's transmission.\u003c\/strong\u003e Unthread the old 33mm hub nut — this can also be difficult, so be patient and keep the basket from rotating. To install the new WH02X10363, thread it on going counter-clockwise, since this nut is reverse-threaded — the opposite direction of a standard nut. Align the base with the spline shaft, set it into position, and reassemble in reverse order: reinstall the 11mm bolt, reinstall the auger, and reattach the fabric softener dispenser. Restore power and run a test cycle to confirm the basket is stable with no wobble or unusual noise. Tools needed: impact driver or wrench with 90 ft-lb torque-limiting extension, 1-5\/16\" (33mm) deep well or impact socket, 3\/8\" to 1\/2\" adapter, 11mm socket, Phillips screwdriver, work gloves, safety glasses.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pom-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pom-faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-q\"\u003eDo I really need a special torque tool, or can I use a regular impact wrench?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-a\"\u003eGE's own manufacturer guidance is explicit on this point: a 90 ft-lb torque-limiting extension must be used when removing or installing this hub nut to prevent damage to the nut and the transmission from over-torquing.
