GE WE49X28031 Dryer Idler Bracket and Bearing Assembly - Genuine OEM Part
This genuine OEM GE WE49X28031 idler bracket and bearing assembly is designed for GE and Hotpoint dryers.

If your dryer is squeaking, thumping, or the drum is not turning, a worn idler bracket and bearing assembly is a common cause.
