I have a 20 plus y/o maytag top load washer that in agitator cycle it sounds like grinding the gears. I have replaced the agitator, the drive belt and the thrust bearing kit. Why is it still grinding in agitator cycle only? The model is SAV2655AWW

It's either the bearing in the drain pump, on those models they are metal and will start slipping causing a grinding noise. Take the belt off the pump and spin it with your hand if it's bad you will know. If that's not it and it's only doing it while agitating then there are some bad gears in the transmission itself.
