HOW CAN I REPAIR THE AGITATOR ON MY KENMORE WAHER?

THE TOP PORTION OF THE AGITATOR SLIPS WHEN UNDER A LOAD. WHAT DO I NEED TO REPAIR? THE BOTTOM SECTION AGITATES AND ALL CYCLES WORK.
STEVE PERSINGER, August 2006
Rem. the top of the agitator (pry it up gently)
down inside there you'll see three "dogs" which give the upper agitator it's back & forth action, and are worn out. At the center you'll see a bolt head (or screw head, not sure which)

Unscrew this to rem the top piece, replace the dogs and you're good to go
