As long as this worked for you, your good to go. Just be aware that when you stretch the roller material that surrounds the barrels, the chance of them falling off is great. The hot water and dryer heat from the coils can loosen them and if they fall into the base and get into the discharge section, you just messed up the pump, etc.

Hi,
Welcome to "Fixya" ! You can find these lower rack support roller & clip assemblies at "repairclinic.com" for around $10ea.
Their part number is 1156665. They are really easy to change as you may already know, they snap in place. Hope that is the answer you where looking for, let me know. Thanks for visiting "fixya" with your inquiry. Please take a second and rate my answer accordingly or if more assistance is needed post a reply.
Good luck.

One option is installing stainless steel washers on the rack supports that screw into the side of the tub. The rack falls down because there is too much "slop" with the rack...a couple small washers to space them tighter normally does the trick.
