LG383EER3001V Genuine OEM Shock Absorber for LG Washing Machines

Very good. Fit perfect

Fit my 11 year old LG WM2450HRA that had started walking around during the spin cycle. I ordered three new shocks and all three came with two new pins each (6 total). They look and feel VERY similar to my old ones. I will say the old ones are slightly wider in the widest part, and the new ones had different serial numbers than the old ones I replaced (see photos). I’m not sure if this will matter in the long run. The new pins too were very slightly wider and more opaque in color. That being said they seemed to fit just fine and I just ran a BIG load of laundry and the washer stayed put and seemed much calmer and content to do it’s job.If you are like me and are planning to do your repairs yourself with the help from YouTube or the installation videos from the direct parts vendors just be aware it is NOT as easy as they make it look. For me, the plastic pins were harder to remove and install than in the videos. There is no way on this great green earth that you will be able to push the new ones in using just your fingers. Grease them up with some hand soap or a plastic-safe lubricant and tap them in with a hammer when installing or use some channel locks or a clamp to push them in. The openings for the pins on the shocks also have a wider end and a narrower end - it will be easier to put the pins through if you start at the wider end.Also, do yourself a favor and order a spring clamp expander along with these shocks because if you have a front loader and are working by yourself it will save you about an hour and a lot of blood, sweat, and tears getting that spring clamp back on the door gasket when you’re done. I was able to get mine back in after a lot of horsing it with channel locks and a screw driver but I scratched up the side of my washer a fair amount and my fingers are still throbbing an hour later.Bottom line - this was the best price I found for these shocks, they fit my machine, came with all the necessary pieces, and seem to have fixed my problem. 10/10 am happy with my purchase.

The pins are useless because too thick. The holes in the absorber are too small compare to the original. I managed remove the plastic part inside the hole and used my original pins to installed them.

Washer is maybe 5-6 years old and was doing a lot of banging, seemed like more than usual. Seemed like a balance ring issue but reading around online everyone was pretty adamant that it would be these shock absorbers. They were right.Ended up taking the washer off the pedestal and flipping it on it's side. Then the front two were easy to replace with a pair of pliers and a small hammer. The back one I needed to remove the rear plate to get access to one of the mounting points.All in all I did this with another persons help, as you do need to lift the washer and it's heavy, in maybe an hour taking my time and doing some cleaning along the way. I do not see how you could do this only from behind, you have to do it from the bottom and the back.Now the washer is so much quiter and so much better at spinning/balancing the loads. Very happy with the cost + time to do this fix. Much cheaper than buying a replacement.I will point out, these are not pressurized shock absorbers and is probably partially why they wear out so fast. Seals on two of my originals were ruined but you can just pull these shocks apart with your bare hand and put them back together.

Three required for LG WM3770HVA. These worked perfectly to replace the worn out shocks in my washing machine, causing it to flail when spinning, especially with big loads. It spins like a top now! Two things: (1) the locking pins were too fat to fit in the holes, so I reused the originals by coating them in Vaseline, and (2) I tipped the washing machine on its side to access the pins from below and removed the back plate to get at them from the rear. Not too bad.
