Additional Information

The LG Washer Tub Bearing (part number 4280FR4048Z) supports the spin basket shaft at the rear of the tub, ensuring smooth and quiet operation. A worn or faulty bearing can cause excessive noise, vibration, and uneven spinning, leading to increased wear on other washer components. Replacing this part helps restore stability and extends the lifespan of your appliance.

If your washer makes a loud noise during the spin cycle, rumbles, or grinds, a failing tub bearing may be the cause. Excessive movement or shaking during operation can also indicate wear. For washers requiring an inner rear bearing, order part number 4820FR4048N separately to complete the repair.

Before installation, unplug the washer and shut off the water supply to prevent electrical and water-related hazards. Wear protective gloves to handle internal components safely. Verify compatibility with your LG washer model before purchasing to ensure a precise fit.
