The Drum Glide is an OEM part for Frigidaire dryers. It is designed to support the front of the dryer drum as it rotates, allowing the drum to turn smoothly with minimal friction and noise. This is a single glide. Your dryer uses two so it is recommended to replace both at the same time.

Causes of a bad drum glide can include wear and tear from regular use, excessive loads that put undue strain on the drum and its components, or accumulation of lint and debris that can interfere with the glide's movement.

Symptoms of a bad Drum Glide can include:

• Unusual noises, such as screeching or squealing, during operation
• Increased difficulty in turning the drum, leading to longer drying times or incomplete cycles
• Visible wear or damage to the glide itself, indicating it is time for a replacement

This OEM Frigidaire part can also be used on Electrolux, Frigidaire, Gibson, Kelvinator, Westinghouse, and Sears/Kenmore.

This replacement screw secures appliance panels and components to restore proper fit and reduce movement. It's a simple, direct fix when small fasteners are missing, worn, or stripped and panels sit loose or rattle. What it does:

• Secures trim, panels, or internal components to keep parts aligned
• Prevents rattling or vibration caused by loose fasteners
• Replaces missing or damaged screws that prevent proper panel attachment
• Restores a safe, snug fit for covers and access panels

• Disconnect power or fuel supply before accessing the appliance for safety.
• Use the correct screwdriver or driver bit to avoid stripping the head.
• Tighten until snug; avoid over-tightening to prevent damage to threads or housing.
• Keep small parts away from children and pets during installation.

The Rear Drum Support Shaft is an OEM part for Frigidaire dryers, specifically designed to ensure the stability and smooth rotation of the dryer drum. This component plays a pivotal role in the dryer's operation by supporting the rear of the drum, allowing it to turn evenly and quietly during cycles. Note: The rear drum bearing kit is 5303281153.

The causes behind these issues often stem from normal wear and tear, excessive loads that strain the dryer's components, or lack of regular maintenance. Over time, the support shaft can wear down, become loose, or even corrode, leading to operational inefficiencies and potential damage to the dryer.

Symptoms of a failing Rear Drum Support Shaft include:

• Unusual noises, such as thumping or squeaking, during operation
• The dryer drum struggling to rotate or not rotating at all
• Increased wear on other components, such as the belt or motor, due to improper drum alignment

This OEM Frigidaire part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator and some Kenmore models.
