Chosen Solution
I pulled this machine apart and replaced the spider, balancing rings, all three bearings and the struts. Also cleaned any buildup on internals. Still has a violent spin cycle, any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
Cause 1 Shock Absorber One or more of the shock absorbers might be broken or worn out. The shock absorbers dampen the vibration of the washer tub. If one or more of the shock absorbers are worn out, the washer will vibrate or shake. Sometimes, when a washer is moved to another location, the shock absorbers can separate. Check the shock absorbers to ensure that they are positioned correctly, and inspect them for damage and wear. If one or more of the shock absorbers are broken or worn out, we recommend replacing all of the shock absorbers as a preventative measure.
