Looking underneath the machine I could see there were (3) flimsy springs that controlled the spinning of the tub. After a trip to the Home Depot and picking up some springs in the fence / gate isle I went to work replacing them. The springs I found were quite a bit more heavy duty and needed to have the ends twisted to match the original ones.
Here is one of the original springs looking at it from underneath

Here is the original spring on the left and the new replacement on the right

This is the new spring with the end twisted to match the original. I did this with a pair of Vise Grips and a vise.

I used a headlight spring removal/installation tool to change the springs

After replacing the 3 springs with new stronger ones the washing machine works great, it barely ever goes out of balance now!
