12238200001084 Genuine OEM Midea Dryer Bearing House Assembly (Drum Rear Bearing)
The 12238200001084 is a Genuine OEM Midea replacement bearing house assembly compatible with select Midea, Criterion, and Insignia electric and gas dryers, including the CDE41N1AW series. The bearing house assembly is mounted at the rear of the drum and houses the bearing that the rear drum shaft rotates within, supporting the back of the drum and allowing it to spin smoothly. Unlike front-mounted slide rollers used on some dryer platforms, this Midea design uses a rear bearing housing assembly to carry the load at the back of the drum.
When the bearing house assembly wears out — typically from age, lack of lubrication, or accumulated lint and debris — the drum no longer spins smoothly on its rear support, resulting in grinding, rumbling, or squealing noise, increased drum drag, and in advanced cases, visible wobble or binding of the drum during rotation. As a Genuine OEM part manufactured by Midea to factory specifications, the 12238200001084 is a complete bearing house assembly designed as a direct replacement for the original equipment component. Installs in 45–60 minutes with basic hand tools, as drum removal is required.
Quick Answer
The 12238200001084 Genuine OEM Midea Dryer Bearing House Assembly fixes Midea, Criterion, and Insignia dryers with grinding, rumbling, or squealing noise from the rear of the drum, increased drum drag, or visible drum wobble. Mounted at the rear of the drum — houses the bearing the rear drum shaft rotates within. Genuine OEM. Compatible with Midea CDE41N1AW and related Midea electric dryer platform models. Requires drum removal to access — a more involved repair than a front roller swap.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Loud grinding or rumbling noise from the rear of the drum during the drying cycle
Squealing or squeaking noise as the drum rotates — worn or dry bearing surface
Increased drag or resistance felt when manually rotating the drum by hand
Drum wobbling or binding during rotation — worn bearing no longer providing stable support
Excessive vibration during the drying cycle
Visible wear, cracking, or lint/debris buildup in the bearing house area
Drum scraping against the rear bulkhead due to lost bearing support

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — Wear Work Gloves Disconnect power before beginning. Wear work gloves — there are sharp sheet metal edges inside the dryer cabinet. Remove the lint filter housing screws, release the top panel locking clips with a putty knife, and lift the top panel. Remove the front panel to access the drum. Take a photo of the belt routing before disconnecting the drive belt from the idler pulley. Carefully lift the drum out of the cabinet and set it aside on a padded surface. Locate the bearing house assembly mounted at the rear bulkhead where the drum's rear shaft was seated. Remove the mounting screws or clips securing the old bearing house assembly and pull it free. Clean any accumulated lint or debris from the mounting area before installing the new part. Install the new 12238200001084 bearing house assembly in the same position and secure the mounting hardware. Reinstall the drum, re-route and reconnect the drive belt, and reassemble the front and top panels. Restore power and run a test cycle to confirm the drum rotates smoothly and quietly. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, putty knife, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the bearing house assembly do?
The bearing house assembly is mounted at the rear bulkhead of the dryer and houses the bearing that the rear drum shaft rotates within. It supports the back of the drum as it spins, allowing smooth, low-friction rotation throughout the drying cycle. Unlike dryer platforms that use front-mounted slide rollers or felt seals for drum support, this Midea design relies on a dedicated rear bearing housing to carry the structural load at the back of the drum. As the bearing wears, friction increases, leading to noise, drag, and eventually wobble or binding if left unaddressed.
How do I know if the bearing house assembly has failed versus another component?
A grinding, rumbling, or squealing noise specifically tied to drum rotation — rather than the blower motor or idler pulley — and noise that changes pitch as the drum speeds up or slows down often points to the rear bearing. With the dryer unplugged and the drum exposed (front panel removed), try rotating the drum by hand: if you feel noticeable resistance, grinding, or grittiness compared to a smooth, free rotation, the bearing house assembly has likely worn out and needs replacement.
Why does this repair require removing the drum?
The bearing house assembly is mounted at the rear bulkhead behind the drum, supporting the drum's rear shaft from the inside. There is no way to access this component without first removing the front panel and lifting the drum out of the cabinet. This makes it a more involved repair than swapping a front-accessible part like a belt or idler pulley, but it follows the same general dryer disassembly procedure used for accessing other internal drum components.
Should I inspect other components while the drum is out?
Yes — since the drum must already be removed to access the bearing house assembly, this is an excellent opportunity to inspect the drive belt, idler pulley, and any felt seals or gaskets around the drum opening for wear. Components in this drum drive system tend to wear together, and addressing multiple worn parts in a single repair session helps avoid a near-term repeat teardown.
Is this a Genuine OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a Genuine OEM part manufactured by Midea to factory specifications. It is the exact same bearing house assembly installed in compatible Midea, Criterion, and Insignia electric dryers from the factory — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.

5303281153 Dryer Genuine OEM Rear Drum Bearing
The 5303281153 is a genuine Frigidaire OEM rear drum bearing kit for Frigidaire dryers, and also fits select Crosley, Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, Kenmore, Tappan, and Westinghouse models. This ball-and-socket style bearing supports the rear of the dryer drum, reducing friction and allowing the drum to rotate smoothly and quietly throughout the drying cycle.
The bearing itself measures approximately 1-15/16"L x 1"W x 1-3/8"H, with mounting holes 1-1/2" apart, center to center. The holes in the metal mounting plate are not pre-threaded — the self-tapping screws included in the kit are what create the threads during installation. Common causes of failure include normal wear and tear, exposure to excessive heat or lint buildup, or physical damage from impact or overloading. Symptoms of a worn or failing rear drum bearing include excessive noise or grinding sounds, difficulty rotating the drum or a drum that won't turn at all, visible wear or damage on the bearing, or increased vibration and shaking during the drying cycle. It directly replaces AP2142648, 1851, 3281153, 5304459240, 85-852, AH459829, DE724, EA459829, PS459829, Q000142850, Q142850, WQ142850, 08015113, 08015324, 131378400, 131777700, 137088600, 137088620, 137088630, 175428, 175432, 175433, 31581400, 3281019, 3281020, 5303281019, and 5303281020.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — Mounting Plate Holes Are Not Pre-Threaded Disconnect power at the outlet before beginning. Wear work gloves. Remove the back panel and the drum belt to access the drum, then remove the drum itself to reach the rear bearing assembly. While the dryer is open, take the time to clean out any accumulated lint from inside the cabinet and around the motor, since buildup here is common and worth clearing while you have access. Remove the old bearing bracket, ball shaft, and related hardware. Apply the included high-temperature lubricant to the new Teflon shaft bearing and ball bearing as directed. Assemble the new ball shaft, bearing, and bracket, then mount the bracket to the rear bulkhead. The holes in the metal mounting plate are not pre-threaded — use the self-tapping screws included in the kit to thread the plate as you install them. If the included screws feel blunt or don't bite well, threading with your original screws first and then switching to the new screws for final installation can help. Reinstall the drum, making sure it seats correctly on the new bearing. Reattach the drum belt and back panel, and double check that no leftover screws remain before closing everything up. Restore power and run a test cycle to confirm quiet, smooth drum rotation. Tools needed: nut driver, Phillips or square-drive screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer is making a loud grinding or squealing noise. Is this the part I need?
Yes, this is one of the most common symptoms of a worn rear drum bearing. One customer described their dryer as no longer "talking back" after the repair — no more chatter or grinding — confirming this bearing was the source of the noise.
Why does it matter that the mounting plate holes aren't pre-threaded?
Since the plate isn't pre-threaded, the self-tapping screws included in the kit have to cut their own threads as you install them, which takes a bit more care than screwing into an already-threaded hole. One customer found the included screws were blunt and didn't tap easily, and got better results starting the threads with their original, sharper screws before switching to the new screws for the final installation.
Should I clean anything else while I have the dryer open for this repair?
Yes, it's worth it. One customer found their motor "completely embedded with lint and animal hair" during this repair and spent extra time cleaning it out. Since you'll already have the back panel and drum removed, this is a good opportunity to clear out accumulated lint throughout the cabinet.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by Frigidaire to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original bearing style, dimensions, and hardware configuration of the rear drum bearing kit originally installed in your dryer.

XPARTCO WE25X205 Dryer Drum Bearing
The XPARTCO WE25X205 is an aftermarket replacement rear drum bearing kit for GE, Hotpoint, and Kenmore electric and gas dryers. The rear drum bearing supports the back of the drum and lets it turn smoothly and quietly as the belt drives it. When the bearing wears out, the drum starts to squeal, rumble, or grind while it turns, and a badly worn bearing can let the drum sit unevenly or scrape.
This is a direct-fit aftermarket replacement for the original GE kit. GE's catalog lists WE25X205 as superseded to WE25M40, and this listing covers both numbers. Because the drum has to come out to reach the bearing, it is a good time to inspect the drum belt, idler pulley, and drum glides and replace any that look worn.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO WE25X205 Dryer Drum Bearing fixes a GE, Hotpoint, or Kenmore dryer that squeals, rumbles, or grinds when the drum turns. It replaces the rear drum bearing and is also listed under WE25M40. Classic symptom: a loud squeal or rumble that follows the drum and is there with or without heat.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Loud squealing or squeaking while the drum turns
Rumbling or grinding noise from the back of the dryer
Drum that wobbles, drags, or doesn't turn smoothly
Excess vibration during a cycle
Noise that continues even when the dryer is running without heat

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Power Before Installing Unplug the dryer before beginning, and shut off the gas supply first on gas models. Wear work gloves, as the cabinet edges are sharp. Remove the top and front panel as shown in your model's service guide, then lift the drum belt off and slide the drum out, which is easier with a second person. Remove the old rear bearing from the back panel, install the new one in the same position, and reassemble in reverse order. Check the belt, idler pulley, and drum glides while the drum is out and replace any that are worn. Plan on about 30 minutes to 1 hour.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer squeals when the drum turns. Is this the part I need?
A squeal that follows the drum is most often a worn rear drum bearing, though a worn idler pulley or drum glides can make similar noise. If you can spin the drum by hand and feel roughness or hear grinding, the bearing is a likely cause.
What's the difference between WE25X205 and WE25M40?
GE's catalog lists WE25X205 as superseded to WE25M40, and retailers list them as interchangeable. This listing covers both numbers.
Should I replace the drum belt at the same time?
It's a good idea. The drum has to come out to reach the bearing, so this is the easiest time to inspect the belt, idler pulley, and drum glides and replace anything worn.
Will this fit my dryer?
It is listed for many GE, Hotpoint, and Kenmore dryers, but the model list above is only a sample. Check your model number against your parts diagram, or contact our support team and we'll verify it before you order.

XPARTCO 4581EL2002H Dryer Drum Roller w/ Bearing Replaces 4581EL2002L, 4581EL2002C
The XPARTCO 4581EL2002H is an aftermarket replacement drum support roller for LG-built dryers sold under the LG, Kenmore, and GE brands. This roller sits under the drum and lets it rotate smoothly against the dryer's frame. As the roller's internal bearing wears out, it commonly starts producing a loud rumbling, squeaking, or thumping noise, and in more advanced cases the drum can start riding unevenly or vibrating during the cycle.
This version includes a self-lubricating bearing built into the roller wheel, along with the mounting shaft, nut, and washer needed for installation. It's sold as a single roller assembly — check your dryer's parts diagram to confirm whether you need one roller or a full set, since most drums use two or four rollers and it's common practice to replace them as a set even if only one has failed. It directly replaces 4581EL2002L, 4581EL2002A, 4581EL2002B, 4581EL2002C, 4581EL2002D, 4581EL2002E, 4581EL3001A, 4581EL3001C, 4581EL3001D, 4581EL3001F, AP6985402, AP7220429, AGM75510755, EAP12749664, PD00064735, and PS12749664. Installs in 30–60 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO 4581EL2002H Dryer Drum Roller w/ Bearing fixes LG, Kenmore, and GE (LG-built) dryers with a loud rumbling, squeaking, or thumping noise, or a drum that vibrates or rides unevenly during the cycle. 3-1/8" diameter x 2-3/8" width, self-lubricating bearing, sold as a single roller with shaft, nut, and washer. Replaces 4581EL2002L, 4581EL2002A/B/C/D/E, 4581EL3001A/C/D/F, AP6985402, AP7220429, AGM75510755, EAP12749664, PD00064735, PS12749664. Classic symptom: rhythmic thumping or squeaking noise that speeds up and slows down with drum rotation.

Cross Reference Information

Replaces Part Numbers
This drum roller directly replaces the following OEM and cross-reference part numbers:
4581EL2002H, 4581EL2002L, 4581EL2002A, 4581EL2002B, 4581EL2002C, 4581EL2002D, 4581EL2002E, 4581EL3001A, 4581EL3001C, 4581EL3001D, 4581EL3001F, AP6985402, AP7220429, AGM75510755, EAP12749664, PD00064735, PS12749664
If your part number is not listed above, contact our support team before ordering and we will verify compatibility.
Compatibility
This drum roller is compatible with select LG-built dryers from the following brands:
LG dryers (including DLG59988S, DLE9577SM, DLE0442W, DLE8377NW, and related models)
Kenmore / Sears dryers (select LG-built models)
GE dryers (select LG-built models)
Worth Noting: Our sourcing found 4581EL2002L currently listed by the manufacturer as a 4-roller kit that itself lists 4581EL2002H among the numbers it replaces — while 4581EL2002H (this listing) is sold as a single roller assembly. Rather than one version cleanly superseding the other, these appear to be the same roller design sold under two different SKUs at two different quantities (single vs. 4-pack). Confirm how many rollers your dryer's parts diagram calls for, and contact our support team with your model number if you want to verify which listing fits your order best.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting Disconnect power before beginning. Remove the front panel (typically held by spring clips or screws behind the door frame) to access the drum. Support the drum from the front so it doesn't drop once the front panel is off. Locate the roller assemblies on the support shafts at the rear or bottom of the drum cavity. Remove the retaining nut/clip holding the old roller onto its shaft, and slide the old roller off. Slide the new 4581EL2002H roller onto the shaft and secure it with the nut and washer, matching the original orientation. If replacing multiple rollers, repeat for each one — most technicians replace all rollers at once even if only one has failed, since the others are usually not far behind in wear. Reinstall the front panel and drum, restore power, and run a test cycle to confirm the noise is gone and the drum spins smoothly. Tools needed: nut driver or socket set, putty knife (for spring clips, if applicable).
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer makes a loud thumping or squeaking noise that speeds up with the drum — is this the part?
This is one of the most common symptoms of a worn drum roller bearing. As the bearing wears, the roller develops flat spots or excess play, producing a noise that tracks with drum rotation speed. Confirm by looking at the roller wheels through the front panel opening for visible wear, cracking, or flat spots before ordering.
Do I need one roller or a full set?
Check your dryer's parts diagram — most LG-platform drums use either two or four support rollers. This listing is for a single roller assembly. Even if only one roller is worn, many technicians replace the full set at once since the remaining originals are usually close behind in wear and it saves a repeat repair.
Is 4581EL2002H the same as 4581EL2002L?
They're the same roller design, but sold under different SKUs at different quantities — 4581EL2002H as a single roller, and 4581EL2002L as a 4-roller kit. Our sourcing found these numbers cross-referencing each other rather than one being a strict newer replacement for the other. Order based on how many rollers you actually need rather than assuming one number is more "current" than the other.
Do I need to replace the drum belt or idler pulley at the same time?
Not necessarily, but if your dryer has significant runtime, it's worth inspecting the drum belt and idler pulley (4400EL2001F and 4561EL3002A on this platform) while you have the drum out, since they're subject to similar wear and are far easier to replace with the drum already accessible.
