Vibrating drum on spin?

On spin, drum vibrates, so badly the machine 'walks' and stops unless i put my weight on it. What needs replacing to prevent this, is there a particular bearing(s) that need renewing, would be nice to know what I am looking for before I take the back off. Thanks LG INTELLOWASHER 7kg WM1171 FHB

The friction shock absorbers will have lost their friction material. Pack tightly with more material such as cotton or other fibrous material + oil
