Took about 4 hours start to finish. Most of it was finding source of water leak. I first thought it was bottom hose attached to boot. Once area was cleaned up I found a puncture in the actual boot. Recommend purchase of spring pliers which added in the removal and installation of the boot.

Lg door boot
December 20, 2021

I purchased the door boot to repair a washer I had gotten on the cheap lg 5.2 cubic ft washer wm8000hva the washer had a small tear in the gasket that didn't leak unless you wash a medium to large load it worked great the installation is easy but not as easy as it looks on the YouTube. To make it as easy as possible you can buy the generic tool the takes the metal bands off instead of using screwdriver and pliers and risk tearing or puncturing the new door boot all in all it took about 45 minutes to do it. If you are handy at fixing things you are beyond capable of replacing this boot

Exact replacement

Look for YouTube videos on installation process and it is pretty easy. I would recommend getting the spring clamp plyers as they will make installation much easier. Overall it took about 30 minutes and had no issues.

Difficult to install; but high quality part
June 15, 2021

The Sears rep was helpful when we ordered the part; however, this is a hard installation for a DIY homeowner. It requires special plumber's tools to install, specifically a tool for the spring tension hoops. We are very pleased with the final result so would order again!

A huge Job!!!!!

This repair was not easy at all! Turned into a 7 hr job! Had to take apart the whole washer. No instructions came with the part! And the part was way overpriced!

Fit perfectly and good quality rubber.
May 11, 2021

Perfect for Sears Kenmore Elite washer model 79641072311. Dish soap helped it fit right on. Spring expansion tool made removal and installation fairly easy. Video I saw showed hose at the bottom, but didn't show hoses at 3 and 9 o'clock positions, or at the top. The door boot holes fit the hose attachments and "fittings" perfectly.

It is a must to have the spring expansion tool, otherwise you will struggle for hours removing and re-installing the two spring clamps on the boot. You can pick one up on Amazon, under $15. The repair quoted from Sears $490, the boot, spring expansion tool and my free labor; $120
