Default Repacing belt?
Brand: Kenmore
Model Number: 110.60852990
Age: 5 - 10 years

I'm trying to get the front panel off. The two top screws were not a problem but the bottom clip's or whatever are refusing to let go. This dryer has no bottom panel. It's one piece so any directions I have found so far are not beneficial.
ANother trip to the washateria will end what sanity I have left.
Thanks

After crusing a few sites I found that you just lift up and the front comes off. I sure wish this info was somewhere easier to find. I still have concerns about the belt idler. My old was was made for the belt to slide on but every place I checked shows a roller wheel so that is what I replaced for the old one. It was a challenge to get the back seal lined up and the drum back in working solo but it seems all is working again.

I checked my drum wheels and they were good so I didn't replace them. Just talking about my dryer the steps would be to remove the two screw from the lid to the dryer vent. Pop lid open and back. Unplug lid switch. Remove two top screw from front panel. Slide front panel up and off and place out of the way. Remove drum then the drum wheels. I don't remember how there kept on their axels but I would think a snap ring.
Hope this helps.
