Question about the 100th Whirlpool washer transmission I've pulled

I was cleaning the shop and counted the old parts bin, and it turns out I've pulled exactly 100 of those specific Whirlpool direct drive transmissions over the last eight years. It made me realize how much of this job is just pattern recognition on a handful of common failures. What's the one part you've replaced so many times you could do it in your sleep?

Wow, @zaranelson, we all have our weird counts.

Yeah @zaranelson, that's the kind of specific count that makes me wonder what other weirdly precise tallies people are keeping. Like how many light bulbs they've changed or something.

Wait, you're counting them? That's wild.
