Order the drum belt alongside this pulley and do both in one visit. It costs a fraction of a second service call and eliminates the most common repeat failure on these machines.\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Frigidaire","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52639651004705,"sku":"5304524493","price":47.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0897\/7783\/2225\/files\/Frigidaire_Drive_Pulley_5304524493_Genuine_OEM.png?v=1782755411","url":"https:\/\/xpartsupply.com\/products\/frigidaire-drive-pulley-5304524493-genuine-oem","provider":"XPart Supply Ltd.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
