Fast fix for squealing dryer
We didn't know what to do about our 15 year old GE dryer. It was leaving black marks on clothes and making a loud squeal/scrape sound intermittently. Looked into the problem and found this repair kit. Once we took apart the front of the dryer (4 screws easy to access), it was clear the plastic slides and housing were the problem. Lots of black residue powder on the drum and housing, the top of the plastic housing was worn thin in spots, and 2 of the 4 slides had disintegrated. The belt, felt gasket and idler pulley were fine so those were discarded from the kit. The housing in the kit is not as thick or robust as the original, but the original was worn through and cracked along the top where it mates with the front panel, so out it went. Job took maybe 15 minutes tops and that's with rereading the instructions. Cleaned everything thoroughly before reassembling. The dryer is now working fine and sounding like it did when it was new.

A bit of Modification
Nice kit, it took about 2 hours to install. I had to drill out an additional 5/8" hole in the bearing flange for some extra sensor my dryer had connected in the path. The quality and operation are as good as new, just clean up the dryer before installation of the new kit and it will fit nicely. Watch a YouTube video, Appliance Parts Pro was most informative.

Easy install
I recently purchased a dryer bearing repair kit for my aging dryer, and I couldn't be happier with the results. From start to finish, the experience was fantastic.Firstly, the price of the repair kit was incredibly reasonable, especially compared to other options on the market. I was pleasantly surprised by the affordability without sacrificing quality.The installation process was a breeze. The kit came with clear and easy-to-follow instructions, making it simple for even a novice like me to handle. Within a short amount of time, I had the new bearings installed and my dryer running smoothly again. It saved me a significant amount of money compared to calling a repair technician.Not only did the repair kit solve the problem with my dryer's bearings, but it also gave me peace of mind knowing that I could tackle future repairs myself if needed.Overall, I highly recommend this dryer bearing repair kit to anyone in need of a cost-effective and user-friendly solution for dryer maintenance. It's a five-star product all the way!
