I went on YouTube and watched the video. It wasn't that hard. You will need a bearing and a bearing press tool,that I Google and found online for about 150.00 . You will need 2 people to do it.because you will have to take the drum out.and when putting it back in you don't want to drop it it hard. Watch the videos on youtube. Step by step instructions. I brought my washer right out in the open area in kitchen and had my laptop on counter and watched and pause video as I worked on my Cabrio. When your bearing goes bad ,it sounds like a jet engine when spin cycle is running. Your bearing will wear out faster if you don't use the HE laundry soap,because it gets all gunk ed up in there. I took the drum out and scribed the side off in bathtub. After I replaced bearing I always used HE SOAP.i took drum out again 2 years latter and it wasn't that dirty ,since I used HE laundry soap.so they are not kidding when they tell you to use HE laundry soap in that machine
