Not too bad, but be prepared for a minor fight pulling the tabs that hold down the motor and putting them back in. You may also run into problems with the pulley on the end of the motor; some people suggested ordering a new one when you order the motor. For more details, <A HREF="http://groups.msn.com/appliantology/general.msnw?action=get_message&mview=0&ID_Message=7138&LastModified=4675508660030809185" REL="nofollow">see this thread</A> on the old Appliantology forums. Hope that helps.<BR/><BR/>Regards,<BR/>Eric Longman I replaced the motor on my Maytag dryer a couple of months ago.

About half the time, I run into problems getting the pulley off. I always keep a spare one on the van incase I need it. Great comments, Eric, thank you!
