soap dish door does not always pop open
the plastic pin that retains the spring has a head on one end that hits a plastic stop on the door to keep it from coming out. I used a small grinder and made a flat spot on the head diameter to make it easy to slide out. This is easier than trying to pry the door off the pin at the two retaing snaps. I was conderned these pin retainer clips were brittle and would break off.
Once the pin is slid out, it is a matter to hold the new spring holes in line with the pin. rotate pin so flat side you ground is turned up, so pin will not move out that way. Tiij about an hour

The rear roller frames became warped & made it hard to put the rack in.
Simply snapped out the old ones and snapped in the new ones. Worked like a charm. Glad you had the parts.

Dishrack Tines were breaking off due to age
The rack came with pictorial instructions which were fairly veg, however they were to the point. The wheels snapped into place easily, and the center water transfer tube twisted off the old one and twisted on the new one just fine. It is a very good idea to keep the old one out to look at as a guide. There were no instructions on how to remove the transfer tube, I was lucky to have already worked on these before. After that it fits and works just peachy.

Broken wheels on lower rack
This problem was making me NUTS! Every time I pulled the lower rack out, the rack would go off the track, threatening to break every dish, and I would literally have to half-carry the rack to move it in and out. VERY frustrating. No money for a new dishwasher, didn't want to pay for a whole new lower rack ($100). Then I discovered I could simply replace the wheel assemblies for less than $30 and no toold required. Yee-hah! It was literally a SNAP!

end loop on each end of spring broke off
Looked at right side of dishwasher to see how it was attached and did the same. Spring was slightly shorter than the original and the loops are not a sturdy. Will see how long it last.

broken roller wheels
Loading and unloading the dishwasher can be a pain if the rollers are not aligned or falling off. This part was easy to install even though it didn't exactly match the original (very old) dishwasher parts.

We needed a new bottom dishrack the old one was very rusty
I ordered a new rack, snapped the stuff together, and slid the old one out and the new one in. Fit beautifully. Piece of cake and much cheaper than a new dishwasher.

3 of 8 wheels had broken off bottom rack.
Piece of cake. Unsnapped the old parts, studied the new ones for a minute to orient myself, and snapped them on. Not quite as simple a twist as the old ones took, but no problem once they were lined up properly. Total time, about 5 minutes or less.

Three rollers fell off
I removed the old rollers. This took a while to figure out how to get the old rollers off. Also it was difficult due to the fact that they had been on the basket for a long time. As soon as I figured out how to take them off and put the new ones on, it was fairly easy. The instructions were non -existent which is why it took a while.
