Default Squeaky rear drum bearing most likely

Let me see if I can write down what the sound is you hear
Eeeeooop Eeeeooop Eeeeooop
let me find you a picA GE Rear bearing.jpgThis guy right here is less than 10 bucks and it mounts on the rear bearing assembly. To access it you gotta remove the front panel and drum. Open the door and remove the screws located at the top, then raise the top and remove the panel. Get the drum out this part mounts on the tip of the drum center.

Hello...i Am Having The Similiar Problem...my Dryer Squeaks Horrbily (high Pitched) With A Wet Load But If It Is Dry And Just Dewrinkling Or 1 Or Two Pieces Wet Then No Noise...do You Still Think It Is Just The Rear Bearing? Thanks.

Default High pitch squeal=rear bearing

A dryer like this makes 2 diff noises of distintion, one is the above mentioned. The other is that of a car that needs rear brakes, Metal to metal scrubbing. Squeal=rear bearing, scrub= drum slides.
