Product review (5 stars): My Wife Installed This Baby In No Time!...
My wife, dreading extremely high repair costs, and the idea of buying a new MAYTAG dryer, took it upon herself to switch out this motor. After watching some videos on YOU TUBE, we ordered this unit, along w/ a drum belt. Once they arrived, she set to work. Within a few hours, we had a dryer that was as good as any new one! After six months, no problems. Reflecting back, she said that the worst part was dealing w/ the clamps that hold the motor in place. They were tough coming off and going back on. Still, if you can get past the fear of not being able to do this, it's not the nightmare one might think...
