Been needing the dryer since I moved into my trailer I bought. Really appreciate it.
You know they should put a buy/sell section in it. It always seem like scrappers like you and me have what others need parts wise.
Hell I need a thermocouple for gas wall heater. I knew I had one. Sure enough I stumbled on it, brand new in the package. Saved me 20 bucks lol.
George when is ya auction sight going live?
Sounds tome that the gliders are worn, after the thumping quits and turns into a grinding noise your woman will complain that her whites are getting a black smudge on them. This will be the fine metal powder coming off the drum as it wears.
The original glides are nylon strips, I purchased a sheet of teflon then cut it into strip for replacemnt glides, if you want to PP me postage I will send you enough stips to repair your dryer. Same offer applies to Bear, $3.00 outa cover it.
The Inglis/Kenmore dryers require a different glide kit that is glued in place unless they changed this over the years.
As for the timer, if your trying to repair on the cheap, find another dryer and swap out the top consul complete with timer you may gain or loose some dryer options.
