Dryer Repair

I know why the dryer won't heat. The heating elemnet is broken. The heating element is enclosed inside the heating box which is welded shut. It appears the element is cliped in place on one side and welded on the other side (or is it). How do you replace just the heating element? I ordered the heating box, and it didn't have the heating element inside of it. Now I have to order a heating element and figure how to remove the old one and install the new one.

I could not cross reference this dryer.
Usually it is one screw and the element assembly pulls out.

Perhaps the following will help.
