Washer suddenly leakedr.
Upon removing the front cover, I could see that the bottom of the outer tub, just above the transmission had water around it. Based on the age of the machine, I went ahead and replaced the tub bearing also.I followed the repair videos. The tub seal kit video had a tub with the plastic tub cover like my model, and the tub bearing kit vid eo used a older model machine. Both videos were EXCELLENT! If you need a part very quickly though, be sure to pay extra for the guaranteed 2-3 day shipping. The website stated that most parts only take 2 days to be delivered. Mine took a week. You will also need to order the spanner wrench; luckily we had one from servicing a family members machine several years ago.

Big time leak from tub seal central bearing / transmission area
I found the instruction video very helpful important and pretty much went by that. Of course, the special wrench/tool to get the spindle apart after removing the agitator is essential, I'd say. Curiously, this was not available from the site (or I may have missed it?) -- I got it elsewhere. The thing was leaking from the tub seal / cen tral bearing area, so I thought while it was apart I'd replace the seal and the bearing too. However, I was unable to get the bearing sleeve off the transmission -- it was stuck/corroded on very tightly. The chap on the video warned about this and suggested it would come off after treatment with a chisel. I went at it for a while but was afraid of destroying the transmission, so I stopped chiseling, and decided to leave it. I sanded down the top area that had accumulated a bit of rust, checked that the new bearing half on the rubber housing would slip on to the old bearing sleeve, and installed the new bearing with rubber housing in the tub. Another comment I would have is that the bearing kit should come with new rubber seals (in addition to spring washers) for the 3 bolts that hold the outer tub to the sprung frame supports. Quite a bit of cleaning involved / fairly dirty job but not too bad. Very doable for anyone with the slightest interest, a few tools, and a bit of time. I spent $200 on tools and parts and if this gives this 15 year old machine a new lease of life, Kudos to the company (video Steve) and Maytag. (Saved me having to dump the thing down by the creek.) Oh, yes, I'm having to replace the hookup hoses because having removed them the seals no longer seat properly and are leaking at the wall and the machine. I've done 2 washes -- so far so good.

Washer was leaking water from very old tub seal
The repair was simple. Just CAREFULLY follow the video instructions that are on the site. The videos are extremely easy to understand, you simply need to follow the procedure precisely. I found it absolutely necessary to buy a Maytag wrench to remove the retaining washers from both the Stem Seal and Bearing Kit. Replacing both at the same time makes sense since leaking seems to be a problem that could arise from the failure of either part, and once you get the Seal removed, the steps and logic to replace the Bearing are a no brainer. Repairing an old Maytag is a very smart decision. My machine is more than 20 years old, but the quality of the original parts will probably keep it running for another 20 years.

Small leak
Replaced tub seal and bearing. It was not difficult at all. Tested the machine with front panel removed 3 times with heavy loads - no water anywhere. Now the machine is fully reassembled and working fine.
