What might be causing the squealing noise on our Maytag Gas Dryer?

Would it happen to be that the *Roller Bracket* and/or *Cylinder Roller* are shot?

FYI, the noise has gotten increasingly worse over the course of the last month or so. It used to go away after the machine warmed up...now it is a constant noise.

Most commonly on these dryers it'sd the rollers or possibly the seals.

Here's the parts breakdown. Model SDG305DAWW

Low pitch "rumbling noise generally indicates support rollers. High pitch usually points to belt or idler pulley. Metallic "scratching" sound indicates a bad felt seal and/or worn glide bearings.
