The message
from "Phil" contains these words:


If there's a web page or document with step by step points on replacing the
bearing then I'd appreciate that, rather than guessing.

There's a generic Haynes manual if that'd help.

As for looking for something rubbing, you might manage by pulling the
heater element out, but generally it's a "drum out and split it in half"
job. Not difficult, but tedious and unless you're meaty there's bits
that are easier with two people.
