Kenmore 79651028900 laundry pedestal Parts

For Kenmore laundry pedestal model 79651028900, the fastest way to track down a discontinued part is to search by the exact model number and then match the original part number to a direct replacement or compatible substitute listed for that model in the parts list and the installation guide.

Step-by-step: how we recommend searching

• Start with the full model number: 79651028900 (not just “Kenmore pedestal”).
• Identify the failed part by name and location (drawer slide rail, leveling leg, leg guide, screws).
• Match the original part number from the old part label or diagram to the parts list.
• If the exact part shows unavailable, look for a superseded or compatible replacement for the same function.
• Confirm fit by comparing mounting style and where it installs (left vs right slide rail, front vs rear leg position).

Common pedestal parts that are often replaced

If your pedestal drawer is sticking, sagging, or not closing smoothly, these are common wear items to check first:

• Laundry appliance pedestal drawer slide rail 4276ER0001A (one side)
• Laundry appliance pedestal drawer slide rail 4276ER0002A (opposite side)
• Laundry appliance pedestal leveling leg assembly AFC72755402 (leveling and stability)
• Laundry appliance pedestal drawer 4870ER0004A (drawer damage)

Quick compatibility checks (before you order)

Use this checklist to avoid ordering the wrong substitute:

What to verify	What to look for	Why it matters
Left vs right orientation	Slide rails are often side-specific	Prevents binding and misalignment
Mounting holes	Same hole pattern and screw locations	Ensures the part installs correctly
Leveling hardware	Lock nut and adjustable foot style	Reduces vibration and drawer rubbing
Pedestal alignment	Appliance brackets align to pedestal brackets	Prevents noise and movement

Why it matters (especially for pedestals)

A pedestal that is not level or not properly anchored can cause noise, vibration, and drawer alignment problems. The installation instructions emphasize correct leg positioning, tightening lock nuts, and securing the appliance to the pedestal with the corner screws to keep everything stable.
