This is the basket hub & ring assembly for my GE top loader washer. I really only need the hub since mine decided to shear off the screws and come apart. Any idea if it's possible to only get the hub?
$260-$460 makes this a ridiculous purchase since the washer new was probably only $550 new.
Didn't realize GE was such garbage when I bought it - so, what brand is good if I move on?
Do you need just the hub or do you also need the basket...I can sell you a hub.. let me know
I also am in need of just hub and the screws. Thanks
if you replace hub you will also need to replace hub nut never just replace hub..
Yes, I agree. Do you have these parts? Thanks
I am in the same boat. Looking only for the Hub and hub nut. Not the assembly with drum. Where can I get one?
Hey, Im looking for just the Hub (WH45X10060) No tub can you help? please contact me @ [email protected]
Now I just need hub with nuts
When you get the new base, paint it with refrigerator epoxy. Use 3 coats and that won't happen again.

I agree with yah, they dont want to sell the base plate... Try WH45X10024 might have to install stainless nuts behind the plate to make it work.
Sorry I posted the wrong part number. WH45X10027
Just in case anyone is looking to try this, I did: they're not lying when they say the hub is different. WH45X10027 is slightly too large, and the holes don't line up (plus it doesn't have the same ridges on the bottom). I can't find the hub for the basket sold separately anywhere.

Yea.. I need these parts to..hub for wh45x10060 also..
Can I get a hub etc [email protected]
Hub is part # wh45x10027. Around $50-60 on eBay.
That's a hub for a lot of GE washers, but not this one. I just tried this in case I could skip buying the whole assembly (or a new washer), and they're definitely different; hub WH45X10027 is larger than the hub for assembly WH45X10060, so it doesn't fit and the holes don't line up. My old hub was so corroded the middle was gone (they're all made of aluminum, and it seems either my water or detergent attacks them), but it seems like the HydroWave ones have a set of ridges on the bottom that the standard hubs don't. Still, I can get the assembly meaningfully cheaper than a decent new washer.
For some reason best known to GE, they have decided not to supply the drive hub on its own. I have a GE PTWN6050M0WT washer sitting in my garage doing nothing. It needs the hub, not the tub and it's not worth the $500 GE wants for the whole assembly. I would love to hear GE's explanation as to why they don't supply the hub only. The same goes for other manufacturers who don't supply the spider on its own for some front load washers. What is stopping a third party manufacturer from copying and producing the part? The Chinese are usually very active in producing copies of just about everything. What's stopping them from producing and selling this GE hub?

FAV6800A/FAV9800A Outer Tub bearing replacement
See what is involved and iff you decide to go forward I will help on that forum. This forum is just to difficult to work in with no edit feature.
The Clicking sound may be a broken Large Wrap spring.
Place the washer with a load in the wash basket start a Spin Only cycle and release the washer top jus high enough to observe wash basket Spin action. There may be none to very little. If you drop the Clutch Pulley out I believe you will find much rust. You have to replace that tub seal and I would do a complete outer tub rebuild. Without replacing the Clutch Pulley around $60 for bearings, Tub and Seal Tranny O-ring.
Review the post FAV6800A/FAV9800A Outer Tub bearing replacement and see if this is a direction for you.
