Hi gang my Maytag De106 dryer Heats phenomenally but only problem when it's running the rotation of the drum goes off balance and seems like it's getting worse my dryer will move inches from my washer. I tried looking around inside and had it running but I can't tell what's causing it .any suggestions ?

Take the drum out and see whats wrong, the front slides may be worn through to the cork backing or you may have a sized rear roller, you already are 1/2 way to finding whats wrong.

There are parts available, but you don't know what you need yet.
