Quick repair of a broken KitchenAid dishwasher top panel.

A few years ago I traded an upper strut wheel arm for an OEM Whirlpool. Two arms broke off a few days ago (with company in town) and looking at the part I bought previously cost over $12 for one. I did a quick search and found these 4 packs for almost the same price. They looked just like the picture so I bought them. The item arrived quickly and when I went to fit it I noticed that the wheel was larger than the original dishwasher and did not fit. Instead of trying to get it back I decided to take some needle nose pliers and try to gently squeeze the plastic tabs being careful not to break them and rip the wheel off so I could reuse the old wheels which are still in good condition condition were . To my surprise, I was able to remove all 4 wheels without locking any of the legs. I took the old wheels off on two of them and they worked great! Now I have two more hands to support. I almost gave 4 stars for the wrong wheel size but changed it to 5 as I never checked if it fits my specific model number and assumed it would fit all KitchenAid/Whirlpool/Kenmore dishwashers . So I'm happy with the purchase. They actually fit a bit snugger (which is good as they seem more secure) than the originals. Funny story - how I came back to take a picture for a review of this product. the last of the original levers broke, so good that i bought these 4 packs, because if one goes, the rest will come sooner or later, it's 14 years old after all. old dishwasher.
