Fergs is on a distinguished road
Default [FIXED] Maytag LDG8414AAL

The dryer has started to make a "rumbling sound", a bigger rumble at start up then not as loud during the cycle but I expect that to get steadily worse. I was thinking the slides are wearing or possibly roller. Also, do I get access to the mechanism from the front or back? As always, I appreciate any suggestions.

Its likely your blower wheel thats stripped, very common when it does this.

Jeff has a good link that shows you how to take it apart to check the blower wheel:
Maytag dryers, how to take apart my Maytag dryer, L shaped door

Here's the blower wheel for this model you can order:
Manufacturer part number Y303836 is RepairClinic item number 1245880

I finally found the time to install the new blower. It is so quiet now you can hardly tell it's running.

Thank you!
