Dryer Repair - Kenmore 700 Series Squeaky Drum roller bearings

DYI Sears Electric Dryer Model 110.68132413
In this video, I will show you how to repair a Sears Kenmore 700 series electric dryer that sqeaks loudly when the drum is turning. Had to replace the 6 drum rollers and the idler pulley.
(FYI, I had opened up the dryer once before and tried to lube the drum rollers. It was quiet for one day or two. So I bit the bullet and got the replacement parts to install.)

Greatly appreciate this video. I successfully completed these steps on my dryer. Without this video I would not have tackled this job.

Completely awesome! I took apart, replaced my wheels, tensioner, and belt, and put back together with no problems! This video had everything I needed.

I couldn’t find a kit with 6 wheels in it either.

Thank you Tom. I had the same problem and did mine today, it works fine but the belt was too short so I used the old belt.

Thanks for the video. I changed my drum rollers as well and it solved my squealing dryer problem.

Thank you so much Tom. step by step and it worked. I have a question, the belt pulley, the one that goes in motor shaft worn out, actually that is the part making the bad noise. do you know where can I get that part and if you have the reference #? Thank you in advance

Thank you for a great video. Did you happen to see where the spring in that area came off if you had a spring come off anywhere I have a spring.

What was the belt number you used. Mine is too faded to see

@Tom have you ever replaced the fuse in this dryer? I can't seem to find where it is.

Hi Tom. I’m having issues with my Kenmore Series 700 dryer. So there are six black/red rollers?
