A universal bolt kit is a set of four bolts designed to be installed through the back of a front load washer to secure the tub for shipping. While each manufacture produces a moving bolt kit for each model they manufacture, it is sometimes impossible or impractical to obtain. As an alternative, customers may purchase a universal kit that can be adapted to almost every model. Since it is extremely unwise to move the delicately balanced front load washers without securing the tub with a bolt kit, Arpin pf RI highly recommends that customers have a custom or universal set of bolts ready for moving day.
