  I purchased both inner and outer bearings, cheaper than other sites I visited, delivery was to within a minute of the time I was given by text message and both bearings fitted like a dream - well done!

  First time user of eSpares, very impressed with the service, sales support staff provided clear advice and product verification, product arrived within a couple of days. Exploded view drawings were emailed to me, the bearing was replaced on the day it arrived, washing machine now working again, Ariston A1635 rear drum bearing, competative price too. eSpares should consider recycling old parts!

    I have a Ariston A1635 washing machine, behind the drum there is a 'spider' cast iron frame, the core of this frame has two bearings, outer and inner, on my unit the inner (drum rear bearing) was worn, after replacing this the grinding noise has now gone, if you have a spider on the rear of unit mark the position before removal, hope this helps..

    The drum spins on 2 bearings (sometimes called front and rear) with a seal to keep out the water. Considering the amount of work to get to the bearings you are better off replacing both and the seal. Probably you can buy them as a set.

    Hi ringo, replacing washing machine bearings is a really tough job. I'd only recommend trying it if you consider yourself highly competent in repairs such as this. You have to remove all the panels of the machine as well as the front, and get access to the drum. Best of luck if you go for it.

  How easy is it to replace the drum bearings

    Drum bearings can be hard to install and we would recommend they are installed for you by a technician. Please also re-check your model details as this model number does not seem to come up on our systems as an Indesit appliance.
