Actually easier to install than expected, product seems good!
Our 15 year old LG DLG5966W gas dryer had been making squeaking noises on start up, sometimes continuing to squeak while running so it was time to either call the repair man or give it go myself. A quick search and I found this kit that had everything needed, along with a great YouTube video by PartSelect with a guy named Steve that walked through most of what I needed to do. Tools I used for this job were:1. A decent cordless drill https://amzn.to/3ZdVBvn2. A set of metric box end ratcheting wrenches https://amzn.to/3IMt8r83. A magnetic mat to hold/sort screws as removed https://amzn.to/3IN37b24. A vacuum or hand vac https://amzn.to/3lWjHfNOnce I got the dryer apart (labeling and placing on the magnetic mat as I go) and lifted out the drum, I could see that the right rear roller wheel was not turning at all! It had a flat spot on it from the drum rubbing against it. What Steve didn't go into in the video I mention is how to remove and replace the complete roller wheel assemblies, which requires an extra couple steps and is why you'll need the wrenches I mentioned above. The front roller wheels are easy to access and replace, however the back roller wheels will need you to remove the inside back panel by taking out (6?) screws holding it in place from the back of the dryer. Once those screws were out, I just needed to gently tilt forward and lift out the shroud, being careful to decouple from the heat pipe, in order to remove and replace the back roller wheel assemblies with a couple of the wrenches.While you're in there, vacuum out the lint - I had to empty my hand vac a couple times due to how much there was. I also removed a bunch of hair that had wrapped around the motor shaft.The kit came with a new belt, belt tensioner, and spring. My belt was frayed in a couple places, so really glad the kit had a new one in it.I cleaned all the dust and lint off of the drum, and put it all back together. I am happy to report, the dryer is running like new again! It's so quiet that we have to go in the laundry room to see if it's still running.Hoping these parts last another 15 years. 90 minutes and about $30 - it was well worth it! Anybody with even a little mechanical ability can do this job. Go for it!Update after 1 month:Belt started slipping after a week or so, could have been installer error as the belt was out of the motor pulley and was just on the smooth shaft. Belt was frayed and grooves were smooth on much of it. I'll take the blame on that one, but put on an "OEM" replacement belt, ensuring to have it properly seated in the pulley before closing things up. I also notices a little wear on the front wheels, some fragments coming off the sides. Time will tell if that will turn in to a long term problem.Another tip - wear gloves when disassembling - both times in taking off the bulkhead, I cut my hand on a sharp edge. Not a problem assembling, just in trying to wrestle the bulkhead out of its retaining clips and lift it out is when I got nicked.

Fits Kenmore 796-91393-610 just fine!
My dryer started making an loud squealing noise. I figured out it was one of the drum rollers and since everything had to be disassembled anyway I decided to use this kit to replace all the wearable parts (most anyway). Everything fit without any issues - parts matched existing OEM.After about 2 weeks, and several dozen loads of laundry later, everything is still running well. Time will tell and if I have to replace these new parts I'll update the review with more details (durability test of sort).My dryer model is: Kenmore 796.91393.610 (this isn't covered well in the documentation, most likely because these parts will fit many different models)

Really cost-effective; seem to be well-made
My LG washing machine (from 2007 or 2008) began making unhappy noises that were getting worse. A little research indicated that it was almost certainly one or more of the drum rollers. (One of the front ones, it turned out, clearly had a bearing that was failing pretty badly). I decided to give this kit a try because it was much cheaper than buying the OEM replacements from a specialty appliance site, as this kit includes all four rollers as well as the belt, idler pulley, and spring. I replaced all four rollers and the belt, but didn't touch the idler pulley or spring. The rollers seem to be very well-made and were identical to the OEM parts. The only oddity is that you need two (2) washers and a nut for each roller, and this kit only includes one, so you'll need to use one of the original ones. I ended up re-using all of the original washers and nut, simply because they seemed larger and maybe a tiny bit thicker than the ones that came with this kit. That's the only reason I only gave 4 stars for the rating. The repair was pretty easy (most of my time was spent removing dust and lint), and the reassembled washer is now as quiet as the day we first bought it. I can't vouch for the longevity, (again, the rollers seem well-made and solidly constructed) but I'm very happy with this kit so far.

Right parts for the right price
Easy installation, the hardest part was the tedious task of disassembling of the dryer. Doesn't come with directions so the way you take it apart is the way it goes back together. Dry now runs smooth and quiet.

Fixed my LG dryer noises
Fixed all noises on my LG dryer. I had replaced my rollers two years ago. This kit includes 4 rollers, belt and idler pulley. Replaced all these items and now my dryer makes NO noises!
