Joe for Model Number MDE9700AYW If I replace drum rollers which I believe are bad, my felt rings have been torn up will it hurt anything not to replacement the entire drum. I think it is riduculous to replace whole drum just because felt rings have gone bad due to roller failure
Answer Hi Joe. The drum supports have the roller shafts with it. This way they are riding true and square. Drum supports part # WPW10177428 = 1/ea. You will need 4 of them. The drum part # W10296563, needs to be checked to see if it was welded smoothly where the rollers ran across it ? This may be why there was premature damage or if it was continuously overloaded. The felt is all one piece built into the drum. Thank You. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Monday, November 28, 2011
