Adding another shop absorber will serve no purpose, if your installed shock absorbers are working correctly. Otherwise, your washer will vibrate or shake. If that's your issue, see https://www.repairclinic.com/RepairHelp/How-To-Fix-A-Washing-Machine/42-5--V0ZXODMwMFNXIA==/Whirlpool-Washer-vibrating-or-shaking. (If it's not your issue, please write us again or consult Whirlpool: for the latter, use the contact information at https://www.contacthelp.com/whirlpool/customer-service.)
