Had to take the whole dryer apart to get to the pulley but this was the fourth time taking it apart so I knew what to do. Also found a YouTube video earlier that was helpful.

Installed pulley and belt.

The pulley was easy to install. The belt was much more involved as it required disassembly of the front of the dryer to remove the drum.

Takes about 15 min to undo dryer back, top, cord, and hose and do it back up. Maybe 5 min to change part.
