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.

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