You will have to remove the front panel to take a better look to see where the leak is.

Here is a link to your washer model lat9406aae.

To remove the front panel you will have to release the two clips that hold the panel to the top.

Using a putty knife push the clips inward.

The clips are about two inches in from the side.

Not to piggyback on this thread, but....
I have a Maytag Model A8420 that leaks water where the shaft enters the tub...
but only leaks during spin and drain.... NOT during the wash cycle or when the tub is still.
Should I install a bearing kit AND a tub seal kit? One is $50 and the other is $60.
I thought if the tub seal is bad, it should always leak... but mine only leaks during spin and drain. So, I thought perhaps only do the bearing kit? Or does it make sense to do both as long as I have everything torn apart?
My thanks in advance

[cybsterman]

yes-install both seal kits and bearings,i will send you my generic instuctions.let me know if this takes care of your problems.
