the sound is coming from the front (different 3 second 339k video
below)

the sound seems to be from frction between the front of the drum and
the big rubber lip around the door.the drum is not contacting the lip
evenly as seen in the video.

also here is a photo of the top springs: http://www.geocities.com/ymailus/top.JPG
