The basket in my GE washer has been wobbling and making a lot of noise during spin cycles. My repairman tells me it needs a new transmission. Probably I will do the repair according to the nice instructions at

Those instructions refer to suspension units that look sort of like shock absorbers or some type of dampers, but maybe they are just springs. Anyway I wonder whether those will need to be replaced---whether they would be worn out due to the wobbling. They are referred to as "ROD/SPRNG ASM" in

The instructions seem very good, but any other hints would be appreciated. Especially I'd like comments about what I should/must replace besides the transmission. Apparently the "split ring" (aka C-ring) is likely to break upon removal. Anything else?
The washer's model number is WSSR3120W1WW.
