OK, I've gotten really good at taking this thing apart, but unfortunately it continues to leak...

I spoke with the guy at the appliance store and he recommended buying the hub and seal replacement kit. I've taken it apart for the third time and have resealed it each time, but it continues to leak...

I can see water under the plastic drum, but I'm not certain it's coming from the seal. It almost seems as though there is a hairline crack in the plastic drum, but I've checked it and it all looks good.

I've taken the time to research how to take it apart and put it back together, it's easy after the third time. The leaking hasn't stopped though, it seem to be alright while it's being filled, but once it starts to agitate water begins dripping.

I've checked the hoses and their all on tight and free of debree.

What am I missing?

Thanks,
Bob
