whirlpool top loader inner drum keeps dropping

[bzz67]

3rgsc9455jq3. Third time i have seen this one for no spin. Since removing an item from between the drums, i cannot seem to tighten that centre shaft clamp enough to stop the drum sliding down the shaft after a few washes.
do you know any tricks to stop this from happening or should i replace the clamp.
never usually have problems fixing these but this one is becoming a pain.

The aluminium housing that the nut goes onto is worn, there should be a lip at the top and it sometimes wears away causing your problem,

You need part number 481946688948 which is called a “block basket drive”
