When I called was very easy to deal with and the part came fast and it was easy to install very happy with past and service
Ian C - January 6, 2022

Part came fast, exactly as described
Only complaint is that this kit should include 2 felt seals. If one seal needs replacing, chances are, with the entire dryer apart, you're going to want to replace both. I had to order 2 separate kits to accomplish this.

Dryer felt strip.
Repair went smoothly and the part was a perfect fit. It shipped really fast too.
Steve B - April 22, 2019

Easy repair and worked as expected.
The video was extremely helpful and was the reason I purchased my item from this company. The part was in great condition and everything back to normal for now. Found the shipping expensive but received the item very fast...in 2 days. Now I need a new roller wheel but I am putting it off because the shipping ($10) will be more than half the cost of the item ($15). :(
Robin F - February 28, 2019

Part looked, worked like the OEM.
The part was easy to replace and the adhesive created a great bond between drum and seal. I put the seal on the drum first and then applied the adhesive between the part and drum. It tacked up quickly and seemed easier to apply that way versus the installation instructions.

Rear tub seal failure
I removed the top cover and then the back cover, released the belt tensioner and removed the drive belt. Then slid the tub out of the unit and onto the back dack. Sanded the remnents of the old seal off. Wiped the tub lip with laquer thinner and applied the "fast" drying glue supplied with the kit. Installed the seal and re-assembled the unit...works fine

Rear seal was damaged and started falling apart.
Had loud squealing prior knew rollers was going. Ordered repair kit that contained new belt , idle pully, and rollers. Knowing I had previously mended the door switch ordered a new to replace it. Unplugged and removed the dryer. Removed front lower panel, then the top and took the screws that held the front panel and door switch. Then I took the belt off and removed the drum. Removed the rear felt and cleaned the drum with fine mesh steel wool applied adehesive waited 5 mins and attached new felt. Then went to work cleaning the inside of the dryer with an air compressor. Rollers were next, poped the retainers and slide old ones off whiped the studs with a rag and put new ones on. Did the same with the belt tensioner pulley that came with the kit. Installed the new door switch and reassembled the dryer. Works great again, quiet etc. Easy fix and glad I ordered the kit.

Old. Original heat seal was deteriorated and peeling off. Streaks were getting on the clothes.
Removed the front panel, removed the tub and removed the old seal. Tub seal area was scraped, sanded and wiped with acetone to ensure a clean. Bonding surface. Applied adhesive with and acid brush to get a consistent adhesive layer without getting too much in any one place. Seal was a bit smaller than the tub circumference so it had to be stretch to fit. While the adhesive was curing , I took the time to clean the contact surfaces and vacuum the lint from inside the cabinet. Reinstalled the tub, drive belt and front panel.

Annoying loud metal to metal screeching noise.
Took the front part of the dryer out, released tension on the idler pulley, took the drum out, and remove the old drum seal. Make sure you remove the old adhesive with sandpaper or wire brush. Put the new adhesive on the seal, not on the drum. Adhesive is very runny. Seal may need to be stretched to fit the drum. Set the seal on the drum, let sit a few minutes. Put everything back together.

Does this kit do both the front and rear felt seals on the drum, or do you need two kits?
For model number 11076934690

Hi Chris, Thank you for the great question. This kit is just one seal with one tube of adhesive, if you are replacing both front and rear seals you will need to order two kits. Good luck with the repair!

My dryer seal on the door is not glued down in one small section. Can I use the adhesive glue to glue down loose section or do I have to replace entire seal? Old, used, dryer. Not worth putting a lot of money into.
For model number GEQ9800PW2

Hello Patricia, Thank you for the question. You can use a High Temperature silicone rubber adhesive used in dryers to reattach that section of the seal. We hope this helps.

I found this seal that came loose inside the drum. Does that mean i need to replace the seal on inside of the back of the drum in that groove and not the outside of the drum?
For model number LEQ8611LG0

Hello Dan, thank you for your question. The felt seal at the back of the drum wraps around the lip. So the one seal seals the inside and outside of the drum. I hope this helps.

For model number WGD8300SW0

Hello Chari, thank you for your question. The parts you would want to replace to fix this issue would be the Dryer Drum Seal with Adhesive 280114. There are two of these on the unit, one that goes around the front of the drum, and the other goes around the back lip of the drum. I hope this helps!

Loud screeching noise when turn on. Replaced the rollers, idler pulley and belt, however still screeching. How can I be sure it is the Rear Drum Felt vs the actual motor screeching? I read somewhere that the bearings in the motor can also cause noise.
For model number LER8648PG0

Hello Angela, Thank you for the question. The only way to know for sure is to remove the old felt and check for wear. We also suggest checking the Two-Piece Split Ring Bearing at the front of the drum. If you need help placing an order, customer service is open 7 days a week. Please feel free to give us a call. We look forward to hearing from you!
