Dryer was making loud screeching noise

My Repair & Advice:

Pretty straight forward fix to get rid of that screeching!.....replaced front drum bearing, lower drum felt and little plastic drum standoffs. Took about 15-20 mins including a good lint cleaning inside and out. (1) removed 4 screws holding back control on. (2) removed door (3) removed 2 screws holding front section of dryer to top and lifted it up and off(had to separate from back part). Removed front of dryer as well. Pulled off old plastic drum bearing...it just snaps in/out and installed new one along with new bottom felt and 4 new plastic standoffs. Put everything back together and house is once more quiet. Got parts real quick from Parts Dr...great transaction!!!
