Customer Questions and Answers for Front Drum Support Assembly by Ge

The Front Drum Support Assembly is an OEM replacement part for GE electric dryers. Located inside the front of the dryer drum housing, it secures the outer rim of the rotating drum and prevents forward/backward movement during intense tumbling cycles.

Causes for replacement include broken or cracked support components from years of enduring abrasive vibrations and elevated temperatures. Normal wear can also diminish the rigidity of mounting points over time.

Symptoms of a faulty support assembly include:

• Increased dryer vibration noises during operation
• Loosening or wobbling of the front drum rim interface
• Premature wear of drum roller slides and housing walls
• Shortened product lifespan from drum misalignments

This is a genuine OEM part that works for some models of GE, and Hotpoint models.
