This Part Fixes These Problems

Loud Thumping / Rumbling Noise

Worn or flat-spotted drum rollers cause rhythmic thumping or rumbling sounds during every cycle. Replacing all 4 rollers restores whisper-quiet operation.

Squealing or Squeaking During Operation

Dry, degraded roller bearings generate high-pitched squealing noise. New self-lubricating rollers eliminate the squeal immediately.

Drum Won't Tumble / Will Not Start Spinning

Severely worn rollers can seize or collapse, preventing the drum from rotating even when the motor is running.

Takes Too Long to Dry

A dragging or wobbling drum caused by bad rollers increases friction, slowing drum rotation and reducing drying efficiency.

Drum Wobble or Uneven Movement

Cracked or broken roller wheels cause the drum to wobble side-to-side during rotation, leading to uneven tumbling and potential drum damage.

💡 Pro Tip: Is Your Drum Roller the Problem?

Your part is likely the culprit if you notice any of the following:

⚠️ Loud thumping, rumbling, or squealing noise during the drying cycle

⚠️ Drum feels wobbly or unsteady when rotated by hand

⚠️ Dryer takes much longer than normal to dry a load

⚠️ Drum stops spinning or fails to tumble even though the motor runs

👨‍🔧 Technician Tip: Always replace all 4 drum rollers at the same time. Rollers wear at similar rates, so replacing only one often leads to repeat failures within months. While the dryer is open, inspect the drum belt and idler pulley — pairing replacement parts 4400EL2001A (belt) and 4561EL3002A (idler pulley) is a smart preventive move that saves labor on future repairs.

Questions & Answers

Is 4581EL2002A the same as 4581EL2002C? Can I use one in place of the other?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Mar 15, 2024
Yes — 4581EL2002C is the updated/superseding part number for the original 4581EL2002A. They are functionally interchangeable and cross-reference directly. Our replacement roller is compatible with both designations and fits all models that originally used either number.
How many rollers does my LG dryer have, and should I replace all of them at once?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Nov 20, 2023
Most LG dryers have 4 drum support rollers — 2 at the rear bulkhead and 2 at the front. We strongly recommend replacing all 4 at the same time. Rollers wear at similar rates, so replacing only the noisy one often leads to another failure within weeks. Doing all 4 in one visit also saves significant labor time.
My dryer makes a loud thumping noise. Will replacing the drum rollers fix it?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Jan 8, 2025
A rhythmic thumping or rumbling noise during the drying cycle is the most common symptom of worn drum support rollers. The rollers develop flat spots or cracks over time, causing the drum to bounce with every rotation. Replacing all 4 rollers with new 4581EL2002A-spec units typically resolves the noise immediately.
Does this roller fit Kenmore dryers as well as LG dryers?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Jul 22, 2024
Yes. Many Kenmore dryers sold through Sears (model numbers beginning with 796) are manufactured by LG and use the same drum roller assembly. This part is compatible with Kenmore models 79679272000, 79681022900, 79681532110, and many others. If you're unsure, please send us your full model number and we'll verify compatibility before you order.
What other parts should I replace at the same time as the drum rollers?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Feb 10, 2026
Since accessing the drum rollers requires full disassembly of the dryer, it's highly cost-effective to simultaneously inspect and replace the drum drive belt (4400EL2001A) and idler pulley (4561EL3002A). These three components work together and tend to wear at similar rates. Replacing all three in one service visit eliminates repeat disassembly and saves future labor costs.
