WP37001042 Whirlpool Dryer Drum Support Roller
The Dryer Drum Support Roller supports the rear of the drum on the dryer during the drying cycle. If the dryer is making a loud rumbling or squeaking noise, replacing this part may alleviate the issue. Note that both rollers should be replaced at the same time and they are self-lubricating. Also check that all lint is cleared from inside your dryer and the vent. Replacing this part will require basic hand tools, some disassembly of the appliance and novice repair experience. You must unplug the appliance or shut off the house circuit breaker before installing this part.

1. Prepare the work area: Gather the right tools and materials and make sure you have a flat, stable work surface. Wear protective gloves and use caution when handling the drum support roller.
2. Unplug the dryer: Make sure the appliance is unplugged to avoid electrical shocks or hazards.
3. Remove the top panel: To access the drum support roller, you'll need to remove the top panel of the dryer. Depending on the model, this may involve unscrewing the screws around the edge of the panel. Once the screws are removed, carefully take off the top panel and set it aside.
4. Take out the drum: Lift the drum out of the dryer and set it aside in a safe place. Make sure to keep track of any bolts or screws that you may need to reattach it.
5. Detach the drum support roller: Now you should see the drum support roller bracket, which holds the two rollers in place. Use a screwdriver to remove the screws that hold the bracket in place. Then, carefully pull the bracket away from the dryer wall, being careful not to damage the surface.
6. Install the new drum support roller: Place the new drum support roller into the bracket, making sure it's securely fitted into place. Reattach the screws to secure the bracket back onto the surface.
7. Re-install the drum: Slide the drum back into the dryer and make sure it's firmly seated in place. Reattach any bolts or screws that were removed earlier.
8. Re-attach the top panel: Place the top panel back on the dryer and reattach the screws around the edge.
9. Test the dryer: Plug the dryer back in and start a cycle to ensure the drum support roller is working properly. If the dryer runs properly, the installation was successful!
Please keep in mind, these instructions are for general guidance and should always be used in conjunction with the manufacturer's manual, if available.
