Frigidaire GENUINE 5303281153 Rear Bearing Kit for Dryer

don t even bother with imitationsthe crews are self threading, so get a good screwdriver to tighten them downother than that watch youtube how to videos before attempting repair (nothing complex, just takes patience, and maybe change the dryer drum belt at the same time since you re in there anyways)

My dryer was making a bone-chilling screeching noise, and some quick searching led me to believe I had a worn drum bearing. There are some great instructional videos on YT for replacing these so I ordered this kit and gave it a go. The process isn't particularly difficult - it took about 1.5 hours for a noob. It's reassuring to know it is a genuine replacement part and not some knock-off that will die in a year. Saved a multi-hundred dollar repair bill and have the satisfaction of a DIY repair!

I was unsure of the model number of my Frigidaire dryer but ordered this anyway as my dryer is making a thumping noise and I've already replaced the belt. Unfortunately this did not resolve the issue, to no fault of the part.I would have given it a full 5 stars if there were some sort of instructions with it. Although there are plenty of YouTube videos showing how to replace and install the bearing kit some paper instructions would be beneficial as well.

Installed the new bearing, not sure how much bearing grease to use, I used most of it but it just pushed out when I put the drum back in, Most of the YouTube advice suggested using all of it but I'm not sure you should if it just squeezes out., Anyway it's working and not squeaking any more. Should be good for another 10 years.

The process was not difficult.Parts were a exact replacement and good quality.The squeaking sound is gone.
