..and that was to drive the bearings out/back in and smash my thumb, leaving claret all over the carpet and the imprint of a lumpy on my knuckle. 🙁
Meh, it all works. £50 of ebay parts (door seal, tub seal and new bearings) and a wet Sunday = hopefully another 10 years out of the rather good LG washer we have.

It is amazing what you can do after watching a youtube vid of a pro doing it, and I would buy another LG any day, even today was a 'straighforward' job really, it had been designed to take apart.
