This bearing supports the washer's inner tub shaft so the drum spins smoothly and quietly. Replacing a worn bearing restores proper drum alignment and reduces grinding, wobble, and loud rumbling during spin cycles. What it does

• Supports the inner tub/drum shaft for smooth rotation
• Keeps the drum properly aligned to prevent wobble and vibration
• Reduces grinding, squealing, and other spin-cycle noises caused by worn bearing surfaces
• Helps protect adjacent parts from premature wear by maintaining correct rotation

• One bearing

• Disconnect power and water before beginning repair; drain tub if applicable
• Replacement typically requires partial disassembly of the washer cabinet and removal of the drum/tub
• Use proper tools to avoid damaging the shaft or bearing housing; press-fit bearings often require a bearing puller/press
• Inspect adjacent seals and shaft for wear; replace as needed

Support A is a small mounting bracket that secures internal components and keeps assemblies aligned so your appliance operates quietly and reliably. It stabilizes parts to reduce vibration and prevent misalignment that can cause noise or wear. What it does:

• Provides structural support and secures internal assemblies or panels
• Helps keep components aligned to prevent rubbing, rattling, or uneven operation
• Reduces vibration and movement during normal use
• Can help stop intermittent noises or loose-feeling parts related to a failed or missing support

• Disconnect power (unplug appliance or switch off breaker) before service
• Access may require removing outer panels or trim — keep fasteners organized for reassembly
• Use basic hand tools; avoid forcing clips or fasteners to prevent damage

The TOP BEARING W/ SEALS is an OEM part for GE dryers. It incorporates both the bearing and seals that facilitate smooth drum rotation at the top of the dryer cylinder. During cycles, the bearing supports the weight of the tumbling drum while the seals prevent hot air from escaping around the drum shaft. 

Symptoms of a faulty top bearing and seals include: 

• Excessive noise or vibration from the area housing the drum shaft
• Reduced drying efficiency as hot air leaks around the drum perimeter   
• The dryer tub potentially hanging crooked within the cabinet
• Difficulties with the drum rotating or staying on track at the top

Causes of failure are typically normal wear over thousands of cycles. Lint contamination or impact damage can also degrade the seals or disrupt proper bearing lubrication.

This GE replacement part is compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore models. 

This top bearing assembly supports the dryer drum and helps it turn smoothly, reducing noise and wobble for more reliable drying performance. It replaces a worn or damaged upper drum support to restore proper drum alignment. What it does:

• Provides a stable bearing surface for the dryer drum to rotate on
• Reduces squealing, grinding, or thumping caused by a worn upper drum support
• Helps prevent drum wobble and uneven wear of the drum seal
• Restores smooth drum rotation that can improve drying consistency

• One top bearing assembly

• Disconnect power before starting work; for gas dryers also shut off the gas supply
• Typically accessed by removing the dryer cabinet or front panel and drum; follow your model's service instructions
• Inspect the drum, seals, and lower supports while the dryer is apart and replace any other worn parts as needed
• Use proper tools and consider service if unfamiliar with appliance repair

This top panel bushing cushions and secures the appliance top panel, helping reduce vibration and wear where the panel mounts. It restores proper fit and quieter operation when the top panel is loose or squeaks. What it does:

• Acts as a mounting insulator between the top panel and cabinet to prevent metal-on-metal contact
• Reduces rattling, vibration and squeaking caused by worn or missing bushings
• Helps maintain correct alignment of the top panel for a snug fit
• Prevents premature damage to the panel mounting points from movement

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Remove the top panel or access panel per the appliance's service instructions to reach the bushing
• Press the old bushing out and install the new bushing fully into the mounting hole; verify panel alignment before reassembly
• Wear gloves and eye protection; inspect adjacent mounting clips or hardware and replace if damaged

The Front Felt Glide Assembly is an OEM part for Frigidaire dryers. This part allows smooth operation of the dryer drum, providing a felt pad that the drum glides on as it rotates. This not only helps to support the drum but also minimizes friction and noise, contributing to the efficient and quiet operation of the dryer. 

Over time, the felt portion of the glide assembly can wear down, leading to increased friction between the drum and the dryer's front panel.  

Symptoms of a bad Front Felt Glide Assembly include:

• Unusual noises during operation, such as squeaking or grinding
• The dryer drum may catch or hesitate during rotation
• Increased wear and tear on clothing due to the drum's rough movement
• The dryer may take longer to dry clothes efficiently due to the drum's impaired rotation

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

The Dryer Drum Glide is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dryers. It is designed to facilitate smooth rotation and movement of the dryer drum during operation. The glide supports the drum, reducing friction and ensuring proper alignment.

Causes of a bad dryer drum glide can include wear and tear over time, exposure to excessive heat or vibration, or damage from foreign objects or improper installation.

Symptoms of a bad dryer drum glide:

• Loud rumbling or grinding noises during the drying cycle
• Excessive vibration or shaking of the dryer
• Difficulty in rotating the drum manually
• Uneven drying or clothing becoming tangled

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

The Drum Slide is an OEM replacement part for GE clothes dryers. It supports the front of the dryer drum, allowing it to rotate smoothly and quietly. Made of durable materials, this component reduces friction as the drum spins, ensuring that the appliance operates with minimal noise and wear.

Causes for a malfunctioning Drum Slide can include wear and tear from the constant rotation of the drum, accumulation of lint or debris causing friction, or damage due to overloading the dryer may also disrupt slide movement quality over time.

Symptoms of a faulty drum slide include:

• Noisy or off-balance drying
• Excessive drying times from inadequate tumbling action
• Premature wear of bearings and drive components due to slide friction issues
