This part replaces 8536974 and 8536973. It also cross-references with several other part numbers, including W10314173, W10314171, 3388342, 3389902, 3396801, 3396802, 3401846, PS11752609, W10756057, and WPW10314173.
If your dryer is making loud squealing, thumping, or grinding noises while the drum rotates, it is often a sign that the rollers are worn out. Other symptoms include the dryer drum struggling to spin, the dryer stopping mid-cycle, or the drum feeling loose or wobbly when turned by hand.
Replacing the rollers requires disassembling the dryer cabinet to access the drum. While the process is manageable for most DIYers, it typically takes 1 to 2 hours. You will generally need a screwdriver (Phillips or flathead), a putty knife for releasing cabinet clips, and a socket wrench set to remove the drum assembly.
Yes, it is highly recommended to replace all rollers in the set simultaneously. If one roller has worn out, the others have likely experienced similar levels of friction and wear; replacing them all at once ensures balanced drum rotation and prevents you from having to disassemble the dryer again in the near future.
Since you have the dryer open, it is a perfect time to inspect the idler pulley, the drum belt for signs of cracking or fraying, and the blower wheel for debris. Cleaning out any accumulated lint from the interior cabinet and the exhaust vent is also a critical maintenance step to improve efficiency and reduce fire hazards.
