David F El Paso , TX January 17, 2015 Appliance: Model MAYTAG, OLDER MODEL Girlfriend's dryer was making the dreaded "thumping" sound Ordered the parts on Sunday and they arrived on Tuesday with standard shipping. Went over today (Sunday), took the dryer apart and installed the new support wheels with new axles, washers and but. Reassembled the dryer, plugged it in and it sounded absolutely quiet. Whole job took about two hours, had to clean the interior while in there, and the girlfriend is very happy. Wonderful experience all the way around.

Wayne V Franklin , WI February 09, 2015 Rear support rollers were shot drum was squeeking badly and eventually started knocking Looked up possible parts via a layout on the web site and ordered the parts I needed, plus a few extras. Figured I'm gonna open this thing once and be done with it. Once I got access to these rollers, via removing the drum from the front, it was an easy fix. The studs that support the rollers were locked so tightly they would not come out. Luckily these were still good and I just elected not to replace them. Dryer works like new!

Mark P North Fort Myers , FL February 18, 2017 Appliance: Maytag Electric Dryer MDE9306AYW Our electric Maytag dryer was making an extremely loud rumbling noise as it ran. The center shaft of one of the drum roller wheels had disintegrated so the roller wheel was moving all over the drum roller axle. I replaced both drum roller wheels and their shafts and lubricated the idler pulley for good measure as it was not spinning as freely on its axle as it should. I had ordered new tumbler bearing kits too, but on inspection, the originals were just fine and I did not replace them. I cleaned up the considerable lint and dust from the inside of the dryer and reassembled it. It now runs whisper quiet like it should. Read More...
