This whirlpool does not have that access panel in the front. I can remove the lint screen and pop open the top, but all you see is the drum and no way to get underneath it. Do I need to take the entire front of the dryer off?

I would not be scared to remove that glide mount and take the drum out. You should inspect those glides oil the wheels and idler anyway and you can get to everything especially the motor. I have some repair photos of older dryers, since that guy seems to be a half breed Whirlpool and maytag I will post both sets: Kenmore/Whirlpool/Estate/Roper Dryer Pics (SublimeMasterJW's Appliance Advice) Maytag/Norge/Amana/Crosley/Admiral/MonkeyWards Basic Repair Pics (SublimeMasterJW's Appliance Advice)
