Machine jumps around when on spin cycle, even when clothes evenly distributed. Machine is probably 8-10 years old
SOURCE: Noise at end of spin cycle
Sounds like the drive block is defective. The drive bloce is a aluminum part that attaches the drun to the gearcase. If you remove the agitator you will see a large nut on top of the basket. If the drive block is worn yo will see aluminum peices on top. It is very simle to relace. You will need a spanner wrench to remove the nut. With the nut removed lift the spin basket up and out. Remove the block. You will see that the new block will only fit on one way. Tap it down untill it will not go any further, replace the basket, make sure you tighten the nut securly replace the agitator and you will be back washing.

What was the point of posting this on the site?
The drum has broken loose from the support plate at the rear
You need a new drum and a support plate plus probably an outer shell.
A complaint to the manufacturer may get you a deal on a replacement
SOURCE: tub is banging loudly on spin cycle . machine is leveled
please check the shock obsorbers and replace them if they are not holding the drum.

it will more than likely be a bra wire caught in the filter it has happened to me twice. you may be able to get to it from the front opening (bottom right) but probably will have to manualy drain it then tip it back as far as it will go safely against something then underneath attached to the rear of the filter and onto the drum is a fat black rubber tube. remove this it is held in place vie a clip and a small star spangled screw once off you should be able to delve in and find your problem good luck

It appears your tub rollers or gliders have failed in this instance.
For replacement parts - head on over to PartSelect.com or RepairClinic.com and enter in your full model number for a full parts listing.
I recommend both sites because ...
FixYa has no affiliation with either site - I have been using and recommending them for years - trouble free.
PartSelect has a great schematic database for locating the part on your unit and great "testimonials" for each part that often times includes HOW-TO information.
RepairClinic has pictures of each part they sell and also a great how-to and troubleshooting for basic repairs.
If your unit has never been serviced - there should still be an original service manual enclosed in plastic taped to the inside of the shell.
In the service manual are Error codes, maintenance procedures, and troubleshooting steps you can follow.
Anything too complicated or beyond your scope should be handled by a professional.
If you think you want to tackle the repair - and have gotten stuck on a step - reply to your question and I will be glad to help you out.
Thanks for using FixYa - a 4 THUMBS rating is appreciated for answering your FREE question
