GEWJE5550K2WW bought in 2009.

During wash/agitation drum seems to be slamming/thudding when it changes direction. It seems from research this is shaft/mode shifter gone bad.

Happily drop the $160 on the replacement parts and repair it, just want to make sure that is the problem. Tempted to replace the unit, if it is something worse.

Parts a
GE WH38X10017 Shaft & Mode Shifter Asm
Supco TB123A Spanner Wrench
General Electric WH2X1193 Hub Nut

Confirmation? Thanks!
