So long story short I got a new washer from a friend, but it's missing a few parts. Rather than hassling him about it I would like to just fix these issues myself. While I am thankful for the washer I don't want to see the tub get damaged from slamming against the inside of the machine cabinet.

I need to know what size the 2 screws are usually which hold the top in place. This would be for the top part of an admiral top load washer. The washer model number for the washer is ATW4675YQ1

When I got this washer I noticed that it walks across the floor in my garage. I have to constantly move it back in place. For this I have already ordered brand new suspension rods, so all I need to know is what size screws hold the top part in place on admiral washers.

I noticed when I took the top off today that only three out of 4 suspension rods were connected. When I put the 4th rod back in place I noticed that the washer still sits off to the right, but not right up against the tub anymore.

It might be hard to tell, but the garage floor is uneven. If you look at the tub itself in the pics inside of cabinet you will notice that the tub is leaning more to the right of the cabinet. I'm not sure why this is as all 4 suspension rods are now connected before there was only 3 connected. I would love to fix this, because like I said this thing walks all over my floor every single cycle. I have to keep bricks around it to ensure it doesn't walk too far.

As for the screws themselves. I am talking about the ones that secure the top of the panel to the washer. I took pictures of these too so that you know what I am looking for. Thanks for all of your help.

According to the parts listing here for this model it looks like you are needing items 23 and/or 24. Pretty expensive for a simple bracket and screw !

After seeing $40.17 and $18.55 for some screws that fit it I think I will just learn to live with the top being lose. The reason I asked originally is because I work at a hardware store so it would be nothing for me to pick these up after work if I just knew the size, length, and thread that fits the washer. If I had this info it might cost me $.0.30 to grab two screws that fit it.

As for the machine walking across the floor that seems to be fixed by reinstalling the 4th suspension rod that fell out of place. I guess the tub was slamming up against the side of the cabinet during each spin in the cycle causing the machine to walk across the floor over time.

Thank you for all of the help.
