Red face Frigidaire PLRS267ZA crisper studs
Brand: Frigidaire
Model Number: PLRS267ZA
Age: 5 - 10 years

I need to replace broken support studs for the 2 bottom crisper drawers. My support stud looks like Part Select p/n PS430556, but mine only have the one oblong shaped post, not two. Mine has a very short top round post, but it protrudes no where near as much as the bottom one. Is this a stud you push in to separate the retaining fingers? Also, how do you remove these things? I tried prying it off, but it just snapped and now I have the retaining fingers remaining in the fridge wall. Can I just drill out the holes?
Thanks to anyone who can help!

Now you will need to push the broken part inside the fridge wall. Dress up the hole as much as possible. The new studs just screw in clockwise, the old studs screw off counterclockwise! Make shure the new stud is now good and tight on wall, if not, you will need to flatten hole area a little.

Hi Appguy - thanks for the response. Are you sure these screw in? There are (3) pieces that protrude from the part and go into the wall of the fridge, so how would it rotate to screw in and out?

The have 3 posts going into the wall of the fridge, so I don't think they will turn or screw in. They sure look like press in.
