Dryer making rhythmic banging noise

I have replaced the drive belt, idler pulley, bearing wheels, bearing shaft, front glides and rear cloth bearing seal. Everything seems to rotate freely including the drive motor and nothing is obstructing the blower wheel. If I push on backwards on the drum while it rotates the noise stops. Any ideas I could try?

If I push on the front of the dryer drum while it spins it seems to stop.

Model WED4815EW1
