Oh thanks! I really didn't understand that I was actually posting a question.. I thought I was doing a search on that topic. I have some info I printed out from another member about buying the kit for fixing a dryer.. I am going to get my dryer's info tonight and bring it to work tomorrow. It has been sqeaking for a while- but only if the dryer is really full.. if we put less in there, then it stops.. every now and then it makes a loud kaboom sound too...

Depends on what brand it is. On the whirlpool and maytag dryers the problem is probably the idler pulley wheel or rollers. If it's a GE then it's probable a worn teflon slide which is located on the front assembly felt. If it's a frigidaire then it's the rear bearing or the front bearing (teflon/felt). Hope this helps,
