Dryer Drum Support Roller
-
Product Description
This drum support roller kit contains the parts needed to replace one roller on your dryer and is an OEM approved replacement part. This kit includes one drum roller and two bearings. Tri-rings are sold separately. The drum support roller holds the drum in position while it spins on the support wheels. Most dryers use two drum rollers, and it is recommended to change both at once to ensure proper drum rotation and even wear. A common symptom of a worn drum support roller is an unusually noisy dryer. This repair has been rated by customers as medium difficulty, and generally takes 30-60 minutes to complete. For your safety, you must disconnect the power, gas, and vent lines before you begin. For this repair you may need a nut driver, pliers, a screwdriver, and a wrench.

After getting the dryer apart, The rollers (2) would not turn by hand. So knew then that had to be the issue. Removed them and wiped them clean and put just a small drop of oil on the roller shafts. They spun freely. Put it back together and it was quite.
I had ordered 4 Tri-Ring washers not realizing that 2 came with each roller. Returned them hassle free.
Also vacuumed it out as there was some lint.
It would an easy fix had I had two good knees. Their videos really helped me out. Glad they took the time to send them.
