I am replacing the front bearing AP4297334 since the slides AP2041815 AP631382 on one side are gone and the drum has eaten the bearing up. While I have the dryer disassembled, I figured the rear bearing needed checked also. the sleeve AP2621911 appears worn some, so I have decided to replace it. My question is, the o-ring AP2621539, is it a soft rubber like a standard automotive o-ring, or is it some other material. The only thing I can find that would resemble it is on the stem the sleeve slides over. And it is hard metal or plastic. I look at the bearing kit AP2619300 and the only thing I see that is white and resembles it is on the end of the stem.


Thanks

The new sleeve should be enough. I do not think you have to do anything with that o-ring at all.

Good, because they are out of the orings. should I put a little grease in the sleeve, or is this a greaseless system?

I do not think it would hurt anything.
