Whirlpool Ultimate Care Washer II spin problem

Whirlpool Ultimate Care II
model #: LSQ8543JQ0
SER #: CL0253455
Year: 2001

The washer cycles fine til it gets to the Spin cycle. drum tries to turn, but does so in a jerky fashion and very slowly while making loud banging noises at the same time. I have video this portion of the cycle and can send if allowed to help diagnose the cause. I have rem9oved the pump/motor assembly to check the motor coupling and they look fine with no broken tabs or worn out rubber bushing. Does this sound like a clutch assembly or timing switch problem? Any helkp would be appreciated. Here is a link to youtube with a video of the change from agitate to spin. Sounds terrible!

Thanks,
Gene
