What do I need to prepare my Kenmore front loading washer for moving?
I have a Kenmore front loading washer model 417.44082400. I have been told I need to lock the drum in order to move the machine. What part do I need?

I added the instructions for removing the shipping support bracket and foam blocks in the image below. You will need to reverse the procedure to prepare your washer for shipping.
If you did not save the support bracket when it was removed, you will need the support bracket. The part# of the support kit is 134511500. The support bracket prevents the tub from moving during shipment to prevent any damage. I added a link below to Sears Parts Direct with the support bracket looked up for you.The part number is 26-417-134511500-SUPPORT KIT. The number 26 is the division number and the 417 is the source number and 134511500 is the actual part number.
