Does the WHEEL BLOWER HOUSING HAVE METAL THREADS ON THE WHEEL BLOWER TO the MOTOR SHAFT?
For model number FER341AC0
Hi Lloyd,
Thank you for your question. We have researched this for you and the hub does have metal threads. We have included a link to one of our YouTube videos that you may reference on how to install the blower housing with blower wheel. The dryer in the video may appear different from yours, but it will give you a general idea on how to install the part. We hope this helps with the repair!.
