Hard to say without being there to listen to it.

Usually on these models the rear bearing goes bad, but that would not make a thumping sound. I think the likely problem is with the idler pulley, but take out the drum and check it, the belt, the rear bearing and the other parts where the drum sits.

Here is the service manual which will show you how.

You may also want to check the paddle in the drum, perhaps one side has come loose.
