Rear Drum Bearing Kit
This kit replaces the rear drum spindle and the plastic bearing sleeve. Squeaking occurs when the lubricant between the metal shaft and the sleeve dries out, causing heat and acoustic resonance through the drum. Replacing the entire assembly restores the low-friction pivot point required for high-RPM rotation.

Idler Pulley
The idler pulley maintains tension on the drive belt; its internal bushing is a high-wear component. When the internal lubricant fails or debris enters the race, it produces a constant high-pitched squeal that persists regardless of load weight. A new pulley eliminates the bearing drag and subsequent noise.

Drum Slides (Front)
The front of the drum is supported by Teflon or plastic slides. Once the sacrificial material wears down to the substrate, the drum creates a 'metal-on-metal' or 'plastic-on-metal' squeak or scraping sound during the rotation cycle. Replacing these restores the intended low-friction interface at the front bulkhead.
