Frigidaire Washer Dryer Combo Shaft Or Pin

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.
