I have a Roper dryer that has been slightly squealing when first turning it on, but the noise now lasts longer and almost sounds like a grinding noise. It heats fine, doesn't overheat and clothes dry in their usual time. I've been told that perhaps the rear bearing needs replaced. My question is what part do I need? I saw various model numbers that looked to crossover between brands and I just wanted to make sure I was ordering the right thing so I could *try* and repair the dryer.

Thanks in advance,

Kelly

Kelly,

Your model dryer has two rear drum rollers,
(click on part number for additional parts and information)

Part number: AP3098345
Part number: AP3098345


But there are several possible noise producing parts as well,

The drum rollers are a good place to start.

(you'll find additional parts listed with the rollers,if you click on the part number)

Good Luck,

:) :) :)
