New Drum, Rollers Too?

We've been running her with a crack in the rear seam for about six thumping months
I need to get this done with one shot - get parts 1st, in and out
I've seen other posts that suggest "Repair Guy" protocall is to replace rollers w/ the drum
But I consider this may be a pad the bill story
Should I expect that the rollers will need to be replaced too?

About the icons: The beer is tip link, if a tech saves ya some money buy em a 6 pack. The small green square=personal message. The green dot is a link to my web page on appliance repair and other general BS I love to post. The letter sends me email and I wish I knowed how to do IM's without the IM lizards that pop up. Very annoying.

Would you put new tires on your car without having them balanced?
Get the rollers.

Mission complete & Mama's happy again - just stopped back to say, THANKS
I did not make clear, this was a DIY job
I did not spend the extra $80 and replace the rollers but did oil them & the tensioner - good tip
Based on all the lint build-up that was cleaned from the inside of the unit & vent, I set a clean schedule every 3 years. WOW, what a fire hazzard.
Thanks again, Boys
