One of my jobs on this fine Tuesday was a gearcase replacement on a top load washer. As I was removing the gearcase, as you can see, it fell apart 🤣. I found it extremely odd that the moving parts inside the case were plastic. Things certainly aren't built the way they used to be. Gearcases twenty years ago you could get 25-40 years out of. Today, they usually last 5-8 years. So unfortunate.
