rumble when dryer started, then continuing rumble and occasional click when it was running
The videos available on the net illustrate this pretty well. I just wanted to mention that I did this in two passes. I ordered a new belt, the two drum rollers, and the idler pulley, assuming that the rumble was caused by binding in one of the rollers or the pulley, causing the belt to slip. When I got it apart, I realized the rumbling was caused by the blower wheel slipping on its shaft. So if you have this symptom, check that the blower wheel is secure on the shaft first thing. Replacing the blower wheel is a much cheaper and easier repair than replacing the belt, rollers, & pulley.
