Problem
LG Dryer Wheels squeaking after replacing less than 1 Year ago.
Tools
14mm 10mm wrenches and Philiphs Screwdriver.
Repair & Advice
YouTube has the exacts steps. You all need to purchase the OEM wheels from Parts Dr. Their drum roller assemblies have real bearings versus bushings that will only last 1 year.

Repair & Advice
The new parts completely replace the old rollers with new ones that include a new shaft and ball bearing rollers. Some replacements just do the rollers themselves. These should last longer, in theory.
Not hard to replace the front rollers. Back rollers appeared to require a lot more disassembly so I skipped them -- just replacing the rollers in the back would have been easy, but replacing with the entire new assembly was another story.
Final note. My dryer needed three rollers while the web site said 4. This ended up being fine as I only did the 3 on the front.
