Looked on your site and ordered the following parts: Dryer belt and tumbler bearings. Excellent videos to help me repair myself. So, turned on the dryer after replacing both - still the loud screeching noise. What else could it be that I could replace on this model? Thanks for your help.

Other things that can cause a racket are: The rear support rollers. The idler wheel The motor bearings. Something stuck in the blower Something stuck between the drum and the units frame. Bra wires are famous for this.
