I can pull it forard so that it hits the front of the machine. maybe 2" displaced at the top of the drum - and push it back so that is hits something at the back, also maybe 2" of displacement. It's rotating around a point in back of the drum, on the axis. There's no side to side movement. Does it still sound like a broken spider? If so, I'm looking at $60 for parts and $ a lot for labor, right?
Edit: I've tried this on a different machine in the building, one with an undamaged spider, and the range of motion was the same. So I'm discounting a broken spider. I'm going to be able to open the back up this afternoon, so I'll post again.
