Is This Easy?

My front-loading LG Washer clearly needs a new gasket. If I would order a gasket, would it be easy for me to remove the old one and put in the new one? Me, who has no experience whatsoever with appliance repair? My biggest fear would be damaging the washer in the process.

Should be a you tube video on it...
Don't tell anyone but as a contractor I learned a lot off them

@MarineBob Good idea! I once fixed a bathroom sink spigot/faucet with the help of YouTube! It came very close to being a complete success. There was some little problem, I forget what it was, and I had to have a plumber come in and do it right. Turned out the only problem was that I had bought a kit for a shower instead of a sink.

@MarineBob Okay, I need a tool that costs $59.50. I think I'll be getting an appliance repairman to do this.

@Poppies many diy centers will loan you tools
