Did your machine make a ticking noise when needing these?

At present I dont really have drum wobble, just a tapping ticking noise that goes on the whole wash and gets smoother ( less loud) as the fast spin runs. When empty if you rock the drum it does it too. The noise seems to come from the bottom area so wondered if it was early stages of these shocks failing. I have read small heavy loads that I do a lot can put a strain on the suspension. Definitely not anything stuck in the drum holes or wires tapping on the outside, but that's what it sounds like

    Dampers can develop a little 'play' where there is loose movement for a few millimeters. If this occurs the damper may click as it changes direction of movement and require replacement.
